SIMPLICITY AND EFFICIENCY FROM THE COLLECTION TO THE METHODOLOGY

» complete system for parasitological stool analysis.

PARASITOLOGICAL SYSTEM

PARATEST™

Considered by WHO as one of the 8 MOST INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES in the world.

1st Global Forum of Medical Devices (Bangkok, Thailand - 2010)


THE FIRST AND ONLY BIODEGRADABLE PARASITOLOGICAL SYSTEM OF THE WORLD.

Eco friendely, it has the exclusive biodegradable, non-toxic and environmentally safe non-greasy preservative solution, patented by DK, Greenfix™.

It replaces dangerous fixation solutions, contributes to the safety of technicians and laboratory analysts, and to environmental sustainability. It facilitates the analysis by keeping and preserving with excellence the morphological characteristics of cysts of protozoans, as well as eggs and larvae of helminths. Indicated for Lugol coloration.

REPLACES dangerous fixation solutions

+ SAFETY for the developer/technician during the analysis


The neutral solution of formaldehyde is effective in keeping its morphological characteristics of protozoans, eggs and larvae of helminths. The preservative is 5% neutral buffered formalin. Indicated for Lugol stain.


The combination of formaldehyde with sodium acetate and acetic acid acts as a buffer, promoting excellent fixation of organisms with maintenance of morphological characteristics and facilitating microscopic analysis. The SAF preservative (sodium acetate, acetic acid and formalin) was developed to be used also in permanent trichrome staining.
