What is the substance in living cell that has same function as methylene blue?
NADH
How can methylene blue change the solute potential of the cell?
Methylene blue is a membrane-permeable dye that can enter the cell and bind to cellular components, such as proteins and nucleic acids. This binding can alter the osmotic properties of the cell and affect its solute potential. Methylene blue can also disrupt the electron transport chain in mitochondria, leading to changes in cellular metabolism and solute potential.
Process name involved the reaction of yeast and methylene blue?
Methylene blue is a solid, odorless, dark green powder at room temperature. In water this chemical compound turns into a blue solution. When methylene blue is reacted with yeast cells it inhibits the respiration which stops the cells from using hydrogen ions to release energy.
Staining preparation with eosin and methylene blue?
Eosin is a red stand and methylene blue is blue. The result of staining a bacterial smear with a mixture of eosin and methylene blue is that eosin is acidic and acts as a negative stain. Methylene blue is basic the smear background would turn out red while the cells would turn out blue.
How does methylene blue affect the paramecium?
The methylene blue will make the paramecium very horny and secrete sperm.
Why is methylene blue used as an indicator of cell respiration?
because methylene blue turns colourless when it is reduced by hydrogen. during respiration hydrogen is produced and instead of reducing NAD, it reduces methylene blue and turns methylene blue colourless. if methylene blue goes from blue to colourless then this shows that the cell is respiring as it is producing a suffiecient amount of hydrogen to decolourise methylene blue
When living yeast cell were place in methylene blue they became blue why did this happen?
When you added methylene blue to the living yeast cell, the methylene blue is actually a dye so you could see the cells, therefore, the yeast cell became blue. It is much the same with hair dye. If you have a bottle of blue hair dye, it will dye your hair blue.
Why is methylene blue necessary?
Methylene blue is helpful to observe cells through a violet-blue color, making organelles, as well as the cell, easier to identify.
What is substance in living cell that has same function as methylene blue?
NADH
What is the substance in living cell that has same function as methylene blue?
NADH
Whats organelles are visible when methylene blue stains a tomato cell?
When methylene blue stains a tomato cell, it stains both the nucleus and the cytoplasm of the eukaryotic cells. These are the most important organelles of a plant.?æ
What structure in living cell that represented by blue methylene on kingdom fungi?
NADH
Is the cell surface membrane permeable to methylene blue?
Methylene blue is used to stain animal cells, such as human cheek cells, to make their nuclei more observable. Also used to staining the blood film and used in cytology. It gives a blue coloration to the human cheek cell.

Why is methylene blue commonly used for animal cells even though it stains plant and animal nuclei?
because the nuclear bytrate in the animal cell does not react with methylene blue
What is the behavior of methylene blue towards the animal charcoal?
i think the methylene blue will be make aqua blue because the charcoal will penerate the color of methylene blue,,,there are absorption process,,,in the charoal between the methylene blue.... (kharlz)
What is the substances in a living cell that has same function as methylene blue?
NADH
