General description

Alizarin-3-methyliminodiacetic acid is used in the colorimetric detection of fluorine. It is a dye employed to stain mineralized bones of the preserved specimen from vertebrates.

Application

Alizarin-3-methyliminodiacetic acid has been used:
  • for live staining of mineralized bone matrix
  • to double-label the bone for dynamic bone histomorphometry at the femoral mid-diaphysis in the rat
  • as a label in histomorphometry of the tibial diaphysis to indicate new bone formation in the rat

Previous investigations on neonate swordtail fish (Xiphophorus helleri) revealed that otolithic calcium incorporation (visualized using the calcium tracer alizarin complexone) and thus otolith growth had ceased after nerve transection, supporting a hypothesis according to which the gravity-dependent otolith growth is
