Hi Sharon, the substance has some other names, maybe this article is helpful: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Hoffmeier/Dextranblau (most of it is in english). If you can't get it, may be there is an alternative. Do you want to tell us what you need it for?
IIRC, cibacron blue sepharose is still available (probably from GE/ Äkta/Pharmacia, Sigma, BioRad etc.). As last resort, do you know some organic chemists? The formula looks quite challenging, but they might be able to prepare some for you.
