Frequently asked questions

Does this kit contain mercury-free fixatives?

Yes, this system utilizes advanced, mercury-free fixation formulas, specifically ZN-PVA and 10% Formalin, to ensure both safe handling and effective preservation of specimens for permanent staining.

Is the collection process sanitary?

Absolutely. Each vial features an integrated sampling spoon attached to the screw-cap lid, which allows for clean, efficient, and sanitary sample collection without needing separate tools.

How can I ensure the correct sample-to-fixative ratio?

The vials are designed with clearly marked “fill to” lines on the labels. This feature helps prevent errors and ensures you achieve the precise specimen-to-fixative ratio required for accurate diagnostic results.

Is this kit suitable for detecting parasites?

Yes, the Para-Pak system is specifically engineered to streamline the detection and diagnosis of ova, parasites, and other enteric pathogens in stool specimens.

What safety precautions should I take?

Because the vials contain chemical additives (ZN-PVA and 10% Formalin), you should always adhere to standard laboratory safety protocols and keep the kit out of reach of children.

What is the delivery timeline for this item?

This is a special order item, and you should allow 2-3 weeks for delivery.

Are the vials easy to distinguish?

Yes, the kit uses distinct color-coded caps (dark gray and pink) to help you quickly identify the specific fixative in each vial, which minimizes confusion during fast-paced laboratory processing.

Are these vials durable during transport?

The vials are constructed from high-quality, unbreakable plastic designed to be leak-resistant and robust, ensuring specimen integrity and safety in clinical or research settings.

Is this product compliant with US procurement standards?

Yes, this kit is both Buy American Act (BAA) and Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant.

Are these vials sterile?

These collection vials are provided non-sterile.
