31. Treatment with N-acetylcysteine, methylene blue or both is sometimes effective after the ingestion of small doses of paracetamol. 32. To prove his hypothesis, Rudolph Heidenhain injected methylene blue into an animal's bloodstream, which soon appeared in the urine. 33. Giemsa improved the Romanowsky stain ( Eosin Y and Methylene Blue ) by stabilizing this dye solution with glycerol. 34. Methylene blue may also be used for those with low blood pressure that does not respond to other treatments.35. Additionally, methylene blue accelerates the hardening of bone cement, increasing the speed at which bone cement can be effectively applied. 36. In the course of his investigations Ehrlich came across methylene blue , which he regarded as particularly suitable for staining bacteria. 37. An easy way to differentiate between different types of coliform bacteria is by using an eosin methylene blue agar plate. 38. Methylene blue can interfere with the respiration of the yeast as it picks up hydrogen ions made during the process.39. A color reaction in an acidified, aqueous methylene blue solution containing chloroform can detect anionic surfactants in a water sample. 40. Similarly, methylene blue is added to bone cement in orthopedic operations to provide easy discrimination between native bone and cement.
