  1. Methylene Blue By: Aubrey Elder & Julie Capson

  2. Molecular Formula: C16H18N3SCl • Molar Mass: 319.85 g/mol • Density: 1.0 g/mL at 20 ̊C • Melting point: 100-110 ̊C with decomposition • Solubility in Water: 40 g/mL 20 ̊C • Boiling point: Decomposes

  3. Physical Characteristics • Methylene Blue is a dye • It can be used for medical purposes • It appears as a solid in room temperature as a odorless dark green powder that yields a blue solution when dissolved in water • The hydrated form has 3 Molecules of water per one Molecule of methane blue.

  4. Its clinical effects are: abdominal pain, chest pain, headache, profuse sweating, and mental confusion. • It was first synthesized by Heinrich Caro in 1876 and was initially used for the dyeing of textiles.
