Traditional parasite concentration procedures have always been limited by the fact that they do not recover protozoan
trophozoites or Strongyloides spp. Alpha-Tec Systems has radically improved upon traditional concentration methods
and now laboratories can isolate and identify a greater number and wider variety from concentrated patient samples.
Using Proto-fix™ CLR, Consed™ CLR, and the PRS™ system both permanent stains and wet preps can be performed
from the concentrated pellet with no loss of trophozoites or nematodes, and no distortion of parasite morphology.
Traditional parasite concentration procedures have always been limited in that they do not recover protozoan trophozoites or Strongyloides spp. CONSED™ CLR overcomes this limitation by changing the specific gravity of the formalin ethyl acetate concentration procedure allowing for recovery of trophozoites without distortion. When used with Proto-fix™ CLR, CONSED™ CLR concentrates parasites allowing for easier morphological identification.
