Description

Cold ZIEHL-NEELSEN staining for mycobacteria detection

Kit Cold ZN Staining allows a detection of mycobacteria or Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB). The characteristic structure of the mycobacteria walls hampers discolouring agent penetration. This property allows AFB to keep Fuchsin staining after discolouring with acid and alcohol.

Other bacteria (non-AFB) and cell elements are counterstained by Methylene blue.
