About this item
EasyStain™ is an immunofluorescence reagent designed for use in testing water samples for the presence of Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts.
When a water sample is stained with the EasyStain™ reagent all oocysts or cysts present in the sample will fluoresce bright green. Stained samples can then be examined using fluorescence microscopy , flow cytometry or laser scanning cytometry.
EasyStain™ is a mixture of two monoclonal antibodies (mAb): a Cryptosporidium-specific IgG1 mAb and a Giardia-specific IgG1 mAb. The reagent is supplied as a working solution and does not require dilution.
The wash buffer is supplied that is used to wash excess antibody from slides or membranes. The wash buffer has been specially designed to increase fluorescence and reduce fading. It does not require dilution.
The mounting medium can be applied to the microscope slide before adding a coverslip. The mounting medium has been specially designed to reduce fading of the prepared sample.
