Instructions for use

Could be washed and re-used if needed.

Never re-use a slide used for Mycobacterium Tuberculosis since the staining makes them difficult to wash and can lead to false positive results.

In case of humidity causing fungus to grow on the slide, wash them with a sulphuric chromium mix and store them in a hermetically sealed plastic box containing Silicagel.

Please consult the “Updated laboratory procedures, 2022” available online via the Laboratory working Group sharepoint page: Laboratory Procedures and Resources.

MSF requirements

Washed slide, with any grease removed (necessary for a proper examination of the smears).
