CL stain malaria, filariasis, leishmaniasis

24 Product(s)

Used Techniques

Thin / thick blood film stained with Giemsa for the detection of malaria, borreliasis, leishmaniasis, filariasis.

Instructions for use

The Giemsa solution should be extemporaneously prepared. The racks for staining and drying slides can be locally manufactured.

Malaria, filariasis and borreliasis are generally done with a capillary blood sample (we can also use venous blood). Do not forget equipment for blood sample collection.

It is recommended to wear gloves for any handling of blood samples.

Leishmaniasis needs an lymph node or spleen puncture, what requires a particular training which is organized only in some specific programmes.

Visceral leishmaniasis (Kala-Azar) requires in addition another diagnostic method with a serological test.

CL drepanocytosis, Emmel test

14 Product(s)

Used Techniques

Emmel test (= sickle cell test) on whole blood/ capillary blood with sodium disulfite (metabisulfite) or saline.

Instructions for use

The technique with sodium disulfite is recommended as it is more sensitive than saline.

The MTB/RIF cartridge will be discontinued by the manufacturer in December 2023 and replaced by the MTB/RIF Ultra cartridge.

Definition

The GeneXpert is an automated molecular cartridge based, closed system to perform nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT).

The test Xpert MTB/RIF and MTB/RIF Ultra cartridge is used to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis and rifampicine resistance. The MTB/RIF Ultra has a lower limit of detection than MTB/RIF, reduces false rifampicin resistance and better differentiate silent from resistant-conferring mutations.

The test Xpert MTB/XDR is used to detect extensively drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with resistance detection to isoniazid, ethionamide, fluoroquinolone, second line injectable drug.

Instructions for use

The GeneXpert® MTB test does not eliminate the need for conventional microscopy, culture and DST, which are required to monitor treatment progress and to detect resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to drugs.

The operating temperature for GeneXpert device is 15-30°C.

Precatalog Text (English)

The Humalyzer 2000 has been stopped by the manufacturer. Contact your laboratory advisor for alternative options.

The support for Humalyzer 2000 will be discontinued in November 2023, and spare parts for this instrument will only be available as long as stock lasts.

Definition

A biochemistry analyser (commonly called "spectrophotometer") is used to carry out different clinical and haematology analyses such as liver function test (ALAT, ASAT), renal function test (creatinine, bilirubine) etc.

Instructions for use

Specific kits allow to carry out each analysis. It is compulsory to use the controls.

The dosage kits and control solutions are thermosensitive items: they must be transported by cold chain and kept refrigerated between 2 and 8°C.

Do not forget equipment for venous blood sample collection.
