Andrea Bullrich
English translation:para-rosaline [details below]
Explanation:
First of all, the Spanish text has omitted a space ("lapararrosailina" should be "la pararrosailina") and added an extra "r"' and "i" (the proper spelling is "para-rosalina"). Correct those errors, and everything falls into place.

"Para-rosaline acetate, ethanolic solution" is mentioned in _ Water and Sewage Works_, by McCarthy, Delaney and Grasso (1961), at pp. 108 and 238, cited in www.newcastle.edu.au/department/bi/birjt/techinfo/med_bacto...

"...staining with a para-rosaline dye (methyl violet)..." appears in
som.flinders.edu.au/fusa/orthoweb/notebook/general/investigations.html

Your Spanish source document has another typographical error. "Calorimétrico" should be "Colorimétrico," because para-rosaline dye is used in colorimetric analysils.

You may already be familiar with the following citation: "5. Para la determinación de concentraciones de los diferentes contaminantes, deberán utilizarse los siguientes métodos de análisis: …Anhídrido sulfuroso: método colorimétrico de la pararrosalina o equivalente," in www.usach.cl/ima/reglame1.html.

or this one: "Anhídrido sulfuroso (SO2): Método colorimétrico de la pararrosalina o equivalente," in www.fundacionpobreza.cl/redes/Medio_Ambiente/tema3/9.html.

Lastly, the "para-" in "para-rosaline" means that the rosaline is in one of the three standard forms of chemical compounds. (The others are the meta- and ortho- forms.) In proper orthography, each of these three prefixes appears in italics.
