- Malaria Staining in Minutes
- Improved Clarity
- Simple Training Requirements
The QBC F.A.S.T. Malaria Stain uses fluorescence microscopy to improve clarity and contrast in malaria detection. Malaria parasites stained with F.A.S.T. stain stand out clearly against a dark background. The stain also provides unmatched speed, with thin blood film staining in just 1 minute, and minimising training requirements by utilising the same basic thin and thick smear preparation and review techniques as Giemsa stain. Designed for use under a fluorescent microscope or the QBC ParaLens Advance System.
How Does It Work?
The QBC F.A.S.T. Malaria Stain's propritary blend allows it to quickly permeate blood cells and bind to the nucleic acid of malaria parasites. When excited by blue light (~400-480 nm), stained parasites will fluoresce bright gold or orange, making them easy to detect.
