General description
AFB-Fluor -Staining kit for fluorescence-microscopic detection of acid fast bacteria, is a staining using using fluorescence which allows acid-fast bacteria (AFB) to be easily identified even when their numbers are small. As it has become an established procedure alongside Ziehl-Neelson staining, we now provide a ready-to-use AFB-fluor staining kit. The kit contains three solutions, of which the first solution contains the two fluorescent dyes, Rhodamine B – staining red-orange - and Auramine O – staining yellow-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 AFB-Color modified (Product number 1.00497)(ZN) is possible. AFB-fluor, modified is designed to be used for smears, thougt it can also be used for paraffin sections. The phenol-free kit AFB-fluor phenol-free (Product number 1.01597) can also be used as a user-friendly alternative.
The kit is sufficient for up to 300 applications. It is an IVD product and CE-certified, thus it can be used in diagnostic applications. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU). The IFU can be downloaded from this webpage.
