Microorganism Stains
- Shelf Life for most Stain Kits is one year from date manufactured.
- Store Stain Kits at 15-30°C unless otherwise stated.
- Most Stain Kits include 2 Complimentary Positive Control Slides to be used for the initial verification of staining techniques and reagents.
- Stain solution groups are sold as individual products under separate part numbers with storage requirements and expiration date designated per bottle.
AFB, Basic Fuchsin, Ellis & Zabrowarny Stain Kit
Stains acid-fast bacilli without the use of phenol. A surfactant substitution is made for phenol which renders the bacterial cell wall permeable to the stain. Results are comparable to the traditional Ziehl-Neelsen method.
Microwave Modification Included
| Part # 91012A | 250ml kit | $107.90 | H |
AFB, Fite Stain Kit
Detects the presence of either Nocardia sp. or Mycobacterium leprae sp. (causative agent of leprosy) in tissue sections.
| Part # 91013A | 250ml kit | $140.80 | H |

| Part # Non-Kit |
AFB, Ziehl-Neelsen Stain Kit
Detects the presence of acid-fast mycobacteria in tissue sections. Carbol Fuchsin Stain, Ziehl-Neelsen, combines phenol and basic fuchsin that works to permeate the lipoid capsule of acid-fast organisms and renders them resistant to acid alcohol decolorization.
| Part # 9101A | 250 ml kit | $71.90 | H |
Differential Stain Kit
(use: Hematological Staining & Special Stain for Helicobacter pylori)
- 2 year shelf-life
Differential staining of peripheral blood smears, touch imprints, fine needle aspirations (FNA), bone marrow biopsy aspirations, as well as detecting Helicobacter pylori sp. in GI tissue. Can be used for smears, touch imprints and tissue sections. This is a modification of the Wright Giemsa Stain technique using aqueous based stain solutions and a methanol fixative. Procedures for both monochromatic and polychromatic versions of the Differential Stain are provided.
| Part # 9112B | 500ml kit | $72.50 | H |
Fungus, Grocott Methenamine Silver (GMS) Stain Kit
Stains a variety of fungal organisms including: Pneumocystis carinii, Aspergillus, Blastomyces, Candida and Histoplasma.
Microwave Modification Included
| Part # 9121A | 250ml kit | $261.00 | H |
| Part # 9121B | 500ml kit | $474.00 | H |
Fungus, PAS/Light Green Stain Kit
Stains fungus and glycoproteins. Polysaccharides present in fungal cell walls are oxidized by the periodic acid to aldehydes. The aldehydes then react with Schiff Reagent, McManus to yield magenta colored fungi.
| Part # 9122A | 250ml kit | $151.70 |
Gram, Brown-Hopps Stain Kit
Stains gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria and uses Gallego solution to differentiate the organisms.
| Part # 9124A | 250ml kit | $138.10 | H |
Gram, Brown-Brenn Modified Stain Kit
Used for differential staining of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in tissue sections, cultures and smears.
| Part # 9123A | 250ml kit | $154.30 | H |
Gram, Hucker-Twort Stain Kit
Stains gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria without the use of picric acid. The Fast Green secondary counterstain provides the green background for clear detection of any red gram-negative bacteria present.
| Part # 9125A | 250ml kit | $154.40 | H |
Helicobacter, Toluidine Blue / Alcian Yellow Stain Kit
Used to screen and detect Helicobacter pylori in gastrointestinal biopsy specimens.
