Basic Red 12, also known as C.I. Basic Red 12, is a synthetic dye belonging to the cationic (basic) dye category, characterized by its vibrant red hue. This compound finds its primary application in various fields of scientific research, notably in molecular biology and histology for staining purposes. Its mechanism of action involves the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged dye molecules and negatively charged components in biological specimens, such as nucleic acids and certain proteins.
