Gentian violet, also known as crystal violet or Basic Violet 3, is one of the commonly used synthetic basic dyes alongside methyl green, neutral red, methylene blue, fuchsin, hematoxylin, malachite green, methyl violet, and basic magenta.
It serves as an acid-base indicator with a pH color change range of 0.1 (green) to 2.0 (blue).
In analytical chemistry, it serves as a non-aqueous solution titration indicator, biological stain, color developer in colorimetric assays, and is also used for detecting metal ions.
Crystal violet is also a key dye in Gram staining of bacteria. It can be used to dye silk, paper, acrylic fiber, etc., and can be made into lakes.
It is used in the manufacture of painting pigments, stamp pads, inks, colored pencils, etc.
It can also be used for dyeing leather, paper, and straw products, and is the main raw material for gentian violet (purple medicine) in industry.
