- Antimicrobial Action: The dye dissociates into positively charged ions that penetrate the cell walls of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, binding to cellular proteins and DNA to inhibit growth.
- Non-Stinging: When formulated into sprays or diluted aqueous solutions (typically 0.25% to 1%), it provides cleansing and healing properties without causing stinging pain to the animal.
- Visible Tracking: The intense, long-lasting purple stain makes it easy for veterinarians and caretakers to track exactly which areas of skin have been treated.
