Recombigen AFB Stain Kit Liquid Reagents - 25+25ml (BC-505774-050)

The Recombigen AFB Stain Kit is designed for the detection of acid-fast bacilli (AFB), specifically Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other mycobacterial species, in clinical specimens such as sputum, urine, and tissue samples. The kit includes reagents and detailed instructions for performing the Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) staining technique, which is the gold standard for identifying AFB in microscopy. This test is crucial for diagnosing tuberculosis (TB) and other mycobacterial infections.

The AFB Stain Kit contains all the necessary components to prepare the samples, stain the AFB, and differentiate them from other organisms. The presence of AFB, which retain the primary stain even after being decolorized with acid-alcohol, is indicative of a mycobacterial infection.
