Azure II is a blue colored powder, which is a mixture of Azure B and Methylene Blue in equal amounts. Its chemical formula is C16H18N3S · C15H16N3S ·2 Cl. Azure ll is also known as 3-Chloro-6-hydroxy-2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, Azur II. It is used for hematologic staining with added Eosin Y stain. The usual color of nuclei (purple) is achieved as a result of molecular interactions between the Eosin Y stain and the Azure B-DNA complex. Staining intensity depends on the amount of Azure II and Azure B/Eosin Y ratio. Several factors may contribute to the results of staining, such as pH solution and buffer solutions, buffer substances, fixation, and duration of the staining procedure.
