Método GASMoC: uma técnica para detetar bacilos álcool ácido-resistentes sem fenol
Gomes, A.; Amaral, P.; Santos, R.; Santos, S.; Tortosa, F.; Mendonça, Paula; Marques-Ramos, AnaA técnica de Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) permite detetar bacilos álcoolácido resistentes (BAAR), tal como Mycobacterium tuberculosis (agente causador da tuberculose). Nesta técnica, a carbol-fucsina (CF) penetra a parede das BAAR conferindo-lhes uma tonalidade rosa que é mantida quando utilizada uma solução descorante, devido ao envelope celular que lhes confere resistência álcool-ácida2. Assim, as BAAR são demonstradas...
