More Details

Gentian Violet, known as crystal violet, Methyl Violet 10B, or hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride, serves as a potent bactericide and anti-fungal agent. This versatile compound is pivotal in the Gram stain test, a vital bacterial identification method widely employed today. Hospitals harness its efficacy for treating severe burns, skin injuries, and gum-related concerns. In the realm of body piercing, Gentian Violet finds utility in accurately demarcating spots for various piercings, including surface ones. With a 1/2oz size option, it acts as a bactericidal solution while also combating fungal infections.
