What is Rose Bengal?

It is a derivative of dichlorfluoresceine that has been treated with iodine. It was originally a wool dye. An interesting fact that prior to the boom in the dye industry in the 1800's there was no modern type of pharmas producing drugs in the way we know it now. The very first antibiotic that was synthesized was the Sulfonamides drugs. These, just like rose bengal, came from a commercial dye. When chemists started to find medical uses for dyes that started the modern pharmaceutical business.
