Product Description
Folate Receptor-mediated Detection (FRD™) Staining Solution
is composed of folic acid, reduced methylene blue, acetic acid, and dimethyl
sulfoxide. FRD™ enables rapid in vitro chemical staining of cervical exfoliated
cells to detect folate receptor overexpression. In clinical practice, FRD™ can be
used as a primary screening tool for precancerous and cancerous lesions, in
triage for women with ASCUS cytology, and as a co-test for women with an
HPV-positive test result.
Epithelium Staining Applicator is used for collecting and adhering exfoliated
cervical cells during a gynecological speculum examination.
