Microbiologics™ Microbiology QC Slides

Description

• Support formal quality assurance programs by serving as quality control challenges to verify performance of stain reagents, staining methods and the performance of personnel interpreting microscopic examinations
• Acid Fast Control Slide Provides two air-dried and methanol-fixed droplets within two etched circles Circle nearest the label contains a droplet of an acid fast-positive Mycobacterium gordonae , a derivative of ATCC™ 14470™† Circle furthest from the label contains a droplet of an acid fast-positive Cryptosporidium in a fecal sample and also contains acid fast-negative intestinal bacteria Blood Parasite Control Slide Provides an air-dried, methanol-fixed, blood parasite smear containing Plasmodium , Babesia or Trypanosoma Cryptosporidium Control Slide Provides a single, air-dried and methanol-fixed fecal smear containing Acid Fast-Positive Cryptosporidium and acid fast-negative intestinal bacteria FYC Control Slide Provides a single, air-dried and methanol-fixed preparation containing Candida albicans, a derivative of ATCC™ 10231™† MYC-D Control Slide Provides a single, air dried, methanol-fixed, preparation containing Candida albicans, a derivative of ATCC™ 10231™† with leucocytes and erythrocytes Mycobacterium Control Slide Provides two air-dried and methanol-fixed droplets within two etched circles Circle nearest the label contains an acid-fast positive Mycobacterium gordonae , a derivative of ATCC™ 14470™† Circle farthest contains an acid fast-negative Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae , a derivative of ATCC™ 19414™† Pneumocystis carinii Control Slide Provides a single, air-dried and methanol-fixed rat lung tissue preparation containing Pneumocystis SAF-Preserved Fecal Smear Control Provides an air-dried, SAF preserved, fecal smear containing a representative intestinal protozoa, usually Giardia lamblia S
