Solarbio Mycobacterium Leprae Stain Solution(Modifield Wade-Fite Method)

Product Introduction

The Modified Wade-Fite Method is a staining technique used in the laboratory to detect acid-fast bacteria, particularly Mycobacterium leprae, which is responsible for causing leprosy. This staining method is a modification of the conventional Ziehl-Neelsen stain and is employed to enhance the visibility of Mycobacterium leprae in clinical specimens, such as skin biopsies.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use the Mycobacterium leprae Stain Solution employing the Modified Wade-Fite Method:

Materials Required:

1. Mycobacterium leprae Stain Solution (Modified Wade-Fite Method)
2. Specimen slides (containing tissue sections, such as skin biopsies)
3. Microscope slides
4. Microscope coverslips
5. Staining tray or staining rack
6. Distilled water
7. Laboratory safety equipment (gloves, lab coat, etc.)

Procedure:

1. Preparation of Slides:
   • Prepare thin sections of the clinical specimen (e.g., skin biopsy) and affix them onto microscope slides.
2. Deparaffinization and Rehydration:
   • If the specimen is paraffin-embedded, deparaffinize the slides using xylene and then rehydrate through a series of alcohol washes (e.g., 100%, 95%, and 70% ethanol).
3. Staining Procedure:
   • Place the slides in a staining tray or staining rack.
   • Flood the slides with the Mycobacterium leprae Stain Solution, ensuring complete coverage of the specimen.
4. Incubation:
   • Incubate the slides for the specified duration, typically around 15-20 minutes. The exact incubation time may vary based on the specific instructions provided with the staining solution.
5. Rinsing:
   • Rinse the stained slides thoroughly with distilled water to remove excess stain.
6. Counterstaining (Optional):
   • Some protocols may include a counterstaining step using a contrasting stain like methylene blue. Follow the instructions provided with the staining solution for specific details.
7. Dehydration:
   • Dehydrate the slides by passing them through a series of alcohol washes in ascending concentrations (e.g., 70%, 95%, and 100% ethanol).
8. Mounting:
   • Apply a mounting medium to the stained slides, place a coverslip over the specimen, and allow it to dry.
9. Microscopic Examination:
   • Examine the stained slides under a microscope equipped with appropriate magnification. Mycobacterium leprae will appear as red-stained bacilli against a contrasting background.
10. Documentation:
    • Document your observations and findings for diagnostic or research purposes.
