D115 Magenta/Magenta - BR1:1 Rhodamine 6G (organic, fluorone dye), BV7 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 7 (organic), BV11:1 Fluorescent Blue-Violet (organic), BV15 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 15 (organic)

Series: A

Lightfast: n/a

Pigment 1: BR1:1 Rhodamine 6G

Rhodamine dyes are often used for microscopy in the biological sciences.

Pigment name: BR1:1 Rhodamine 6G

Pigment Type: organic, fluorone dye

Chemical Name: n/a

Properties: Rhodamine 6G is a staining reddish-yellow pigment that has fluorescent properties. It is highly soluble in both water and alcohol. Fluorescent molecules absorb light at one wavelength and emit light at a longer wavelength.

Permanence: Rhodamine 6G, like all fluorescent dyes, is not considered permanent; however, it is reported to have high stability for a fluorone dye.

Toxicity: Rhodamine 6G is toxic; however, it can be biologically inactive and non-toxic in a lake pigment form.

Alternate Names: Pigment R81:1.

Pigment 2: BV7 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 7

History n/a

Pigment name: BV7 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 7

Pigment Type: organic

Properties: Fluorescent pigments such as BV7 offer intense and brilliant effects because they absorb ultraviolet light and re-emit light at longer wavelengths.

Permanence: Fluorescent pigments are not considered permanent.

Toxicity: n/a

Pigment 3: BV11:1 Fluorescent Blue-Violet

History n/a

Pigment Type: Organic

Properties: Fluorescent (organic) pigments such as BV11:1 offer intense and brilliant effects because they absorb ultraviolet light and re-emit light at longer wavelengths.

Permanence: Like all fluorescent pigments, BV11:1 is not considered permanent. It will fade with exposure to ultraviolet light.

Toxicity: n/a

Pigment 4: BV15 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 15 (organic)

BV15 is used as a fluorescent marker in the biological sciences.

Pigment Name: BV15 Fluorescent Blue-Violet 15

Pigment Type: organic

Chemical Name: n/a

Properties: BV15 is a fluorescent dye.

Permanence: Like all fluorescent pigments, BV15 is not considered permanent. It will fade with exposure to ultraviolet light.

Toxicity: n/a

Alternate Names: n/a
