Cibacron Blue F3GA, Procion Blue HB, or Reactive blue 2 is a purinergic receptor antagonist, such as P2Y purinoceptor, and also an ATP receptor channels antagonist. It has a formula of CHClNOS and a molecular weight of 774.2 g/mol. Cibacron blue is soluble in water and DMSO, however insoluble in ethanol. In water, saturated concentration is reached at 12.92 mM with the help of sonication. Cibacron Blue F3GA  has a wide specificity for nucleotide-binding proteins or  just a stereoselectivity electrostatic binding. It can be used to purify interferons, dehydrogenases, kinases, and serum albumin. For example, interferon purification from human gingival fibroblast extract using Cibacron Blue F3G-A on poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), the supporting matrix, in the form of cryogels. It has shown 97.6% purity of interferon.
