Detecting microsporidiosis beyond the intestines, affects organs like lungs and skin, particularly in those with weakened immune systems.
The Trichrome-Blue Stain (Ryan Modification), pending availability confirmation, is used for Microsporidia Stain to detect organisms such as Encephalitozoon and Enterocytozoon. Specimens needed include duodenal aspirates, respiratory secretions, eye fluids, fresh tissues, and gallbladder or bile aspirates. Each specimen type has specific container and volume requirements, with stability guidelines for preservation methods like ECOFIX, formalin, refrigeration, or freezing.
