Physical and Chemical Properties | Blue crystals with green metallic luster. Very soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, almost insoluble in benzene, chloroform, ether, soluble in acid alkali. Hygroscopicity. Color change at pH near 10. |
Use | This product is a diagnostic drug, used to determine the amount of blood. |
In vitro study | Evans Blue inhibits NF-κB DNA binding at low concentrations, such as 100 μm. Evans Blue is a reliable stain for microscopic identification of cell death. Evans Blue is also a blocker of a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole/kainate receptor binding to GluR1,2. |
In vivo study | Pretreatment of Evans blue can inhibit mast cell degranulation, which may be the main mechanism by which Evans blue prevents animals from producing hypersensitivity and systemic inflammation induced by C48/80. Evans blue modulates non-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors in rat thalamic neurons, inhibits P2X-purine receptors in rat vas deferens, and inhibits glutamate transporters in rat brain synaptic vesicles. |
