Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) Stain Kit (For Fungus)
Details
The Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) Stain Kit (For Fungus) is intended for use in histological demonstration of fungal organisms in tissue sections. The PAS reaction is also useful in the demonstration of lymphocytes and mucopolysaccharides. The staining patterns of the lymphocytes are helpful in making therapeutic decisions in established cases of lymphocytic leukemia.
Fungal Organisms: Magenta
PAS Positive Material: Magenta
Nuclei: Green/Blue
Uses/Limitations:
- For In-Vitro Diagnostic use only
- Histological applications
- Do not use past expiration date
- Use caution when handling these reagents
Control Tissue: Any fungal infected tissue
Procedure (Standard):
1. Deparaffinize sections if necessary and hydrate to distilled water.
2. If sections are Zenker-fixed, remove mercuric chloride crystals using iodine and clear with sodium thiosulfate. Rinse in running tap water.
3. Immerse slide in Periodic Acid Solution for 5 minutes (10 minutes for Kidney, skin and diastase digested liver sections).
4. Rinse slide in 4 changes of distilled water.
5. Immerse slide in Schiff’s Solution for 15 minutes (30 minutes for Kidney, skin and diastase digested liver sections).
6. Rinse slide in hot running tap water.
7. Rinse slide in distilled water.
8. Stain slide in Light Green Solution for 2 minutes.
9. Rinse quickly in distilled water.
10. Dehydrate through graded alcohols.
11. Clear, and mount in synthetic resin.
