Methylene blue can act as an artificial hydrogen acceptor; when this dye is reduced by accepting hydrogen atoms it goes colourless. As such‚ it can be used to guage the rate of respiration by measuring the time taken for it to turn colourless. Methylene blue‚ acting as a hydrogen acceptor‚ is decolourized during the respiration of yeast. By measuring the time taken for a fixed amount of the dye to be decolourized‚ the relative rate of respiration (a catabolic process) can be deduced. Results:
