Indicator: Beat the Alzheimer's blues

http://www.spectroscopynow.com/commo...3d16d600f3.jpgMethylene blue is well known as a redox indicator in chemical laboratories, but it may also have a role to play in warding off the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study, or perhaps lead to novel drugs for the disorder based on its chemical structure and properties. Mechanistic details of the compound's putative mode of action are revealed in the journal Angewandte Chemie by researchers using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and spectroscopy and other approaches.
