Hematoxylin continues to be a popular substance in the 21st century. I present here some recent developments including the use and misuse of the terms, hematoxylin and hemalum, in biological staining. The medical use of hematoxylin and its application as a dye for hair or textiles continues to be of interest. Unusual applications including its use as a biosensor and for study of vibrational properties of wood are included.
