1. Oxidation-Reduction Properties: Methylene blue can undergo reversible redox reactions. In an oxidized state, it is blue, and in a reduced state, it becomes colorless. This property allows it to act as an electron carrier in various chemical and biological systems.
2. Antimicrobial Activity: It has some antimicrobial effects. It can interact with bacterial cell membranes and intracellular components, interfering with bacterial metabolism and growth, thereby exerting a certain inhibitory effect on some bacteria, fungi, and parasites.
3. Photodynamic Therapy Effects: Under certain light conditions, especially in the presence of oxygen, methylene blue can generate reactive oxygen species such as singlet oxygen. These reactive oxygen species can cause damage to biological macromolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids in cells, thereby killing tumor cells or pathogenic microorganisms.

1. Chemical Industry: It is used as an indicator in some chemical reactions to indicate the progress of redox reactions. In addition, it is also used in the production of some dyes and pigments.
2. Water Treatment: Methylene blue can be used to detect the presence of dissolved oxygen in water. Its redox reaction with dissolved oxygen can cause a color change, which can be used to measure the oxygen content in water. It can also be used in some water treatment processes to remove certain organic pollutants and heavy metal ions.
3. Biological Staining: It is widely used in histology and cytology as a staining agent. It can stain cell nuclei, cytoplasm, and some organelles, helping to observe the morphology and structure of cells and tissues under a microscope. For example, in the staining of bacteria, it can make the bacterial cells more clearly visible, facilitating the identification and classification of bacteria.
