For Microscopy. Ready-to-use staining solution for the purpose of bacteriological and histological investigation of sample material of human origin.
Ziehl-Neelsen stain is a useful differential staining to detect acid-alcohol resistant bacteria among
them the identification of mycobacteria, although it does not allow the differentiation of different
species. The acid-resistance characteristic of these microorganisms makes this coloration a rapid
method in the presumptive diagnosis of mycobacterial infection.
