Description
Merthiolate-Iodine-Formalin kit for detecting parasites in stool.
M.I.F. kit enables rapid and simple detection of parasites in stool, especially protozoa (amoeba). This method simultaneously fixes and stains the sample by providing optimal image for viewing nuclear structures necessary for identification of certain kinds of protozoa. Vegetative and cystic forms of parasites have different dye affinities.
M.I.F. kit enables quality staining of parasites and provides concentration of parasitic elements on the surface of the sediment, but owing to quality fixation and preservation of samples for a prolonged period of time.
Result
Vegetative and cystic forms of protozoa - pink-brown, different intensity.
Eggs and larvae - easily noticed, not stained.
Applications
