General description

Shorr staining solution - for hormonal cytodiagnosis, is a ready-to-use staining solution that is used for human-medical cell diagnosis and serves the cytological investigation of sample material of human origin, for example cervical smears. During the course of menstrual cycle, the sex hormones cause characteristic changes in the vaginal epithelium. The hormone situation can be evaluated with the aid of stained vaginal smears. The Shorr staining is used for hormonal cytodiagnosis only, however the differences between eosinophilia and cyanophilia are more distinct. The ratio of eosinophilic to cyanophilic cells casts light on the effects of the folliccular and the corpus luteum hormones. The number of eosinophilic cells increases under the influence of the follicular hormone, whilst that of the cyanophilic cells increases under the influence of corpus luteum hormone.
The 500 ml bottle will provide approx. 1000 stainings. The Shorr staining solution is an IVD registered product and CE certified, thus can be used for clinical diagnostic purposes. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU). The IFU can be downloaded from this webpage.
