Biofix Spray for Gynaecology

After the use of Biofix the sampled biological material is covered with a thin, transparent, polymer coating protecting against the influences of environment during storage and transport.

Scope of application of Biofix

- gynecological smears

- body fluid smears (cerebrospinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, etc)

- smears of aspiration fine-needle biopsy of tumors of: thyroid gland, prostate, mammary gland, lymph glands, salivary glands, soft tissues, etc.

- smears of fluid deposits from body cavities and urine, sputum smears Biofix advantages

- elimination of diagnostic errors

- each preparation is fixed individually, thus it is not possible to move cells from one slide to another, which happens not infrequently while using a liquid "alcohol-ether" fixing agent. All cells present on the slide before fixing, will remain there also after fixing

- complete fixing of sampled material

- no areas that are not fixed, or changes hindering subsequent evaluation of material can be observed

- possibility to color smears, without the need to fear rinsing or deforming cells,material protected against mechanical damage during transport to diagnostic centres

- possibility to store fixed smears for at least 30 days without a loss of their properties

- ease of use and efficiency

Method of application

Spray Biofix on the slide with a smear for a short time (ca 0.5 s) from the distance of approximately 30 cm. Put the slide away on the level surface until it dries. After a few minutes the preparation is properly fixed and protected - can be colored, diagnosed or prepared for transport.
