Acid fast bacteria acc. Kinyoun kit
Staining used in microbiology for the research of acid-alcohol resistant Bacillus (BAAR) in biological materials. With this method, in addition to the bacteria belonging to the Mycobacteriaceae family, other germs with the same characteristic of alcohol-resistance are highlighted (Nocardia spp., Rhodococcus spp., Corynebacterium spp., Gordonia spp., Tsukamurella spp.).
The Kinyoun method does not require heating the glass slide containing the sample. This method uses Carbol Fuchsin as the main dye, acid alcohol as decolorization medium and Malachite Green solution as contrasting dye. BioGnost’s TB-Stain Cold kit contains TB Carbol Fuchsin reagent and two packages of TB Decolorizer and Malachite Green reagent.
