| Description | TB-FLUOR STAINING KIT FOR FLUORESCENCE-M |
| Overview | Fluorescence staining allows acid-resistant Mycobacteria to be easily identified even when their numbers are small. As it has become an established procedure alongside Ziehl-Neelson staining (Tb-color modified), we now provide a ready-to-use TB-fluor staining kit. The kit contains three solutions, of which the first solution contains the two fluorescent dyes, Rhodamine B – staining red - and Auramine O – staining yellowish-green – which can be used depending on the microscopic filters. Further, the kit supplies a decolorization solution and a potassium permanganate solution that turns the background uniformly black, suppressing troublesome intrinsic fluorescence of the specimen. If required, double staining with Tb-color modified (ZN) is possible. Tb-fluor, modified is designed to be used for smears, thougt it can also be used for paraffin sections.The phenol-free kit Tb-fluor phenol-free can also be used as a user-friendly alternative.The kit is sufficient for up to 300 preparations. It is an IVD product and CE-certified, thus it can be used in diagnostic applications. |
