Mixed with lime it is called Bordeaux mixture. It is also used, in Fehling's solution, to test for reducing sugars, which reduce the blue Cu2+aq ions to red copper(I) oxide. Still other uses include hair dyes and the processing of leather and textiles. Copper sulfate is also used to test blood for anemia. A drop of the patient's blood is dropped into a container of copper sulfate, if it sinks within a certain time, then the patient has sufficient haemogloblin levels and is not anemic. If the blood floats or sinks too slowly, then the patient is iron-deficient and may be anemic. In a flame test, copper ions emit a deep blue-green light, much more blue than the flame test for barium.
