Fixation Spray for Cytology
Fixation spray for cytology is a special fixative in spray form designed to preserve cellular specimens, especially smear specimens such as those used in a Pap smear. Fixation is an important step in preserving cellular structure and morphology during specimen processing, staining and analysis.
Fixation spray often contains a mixture of alcohols, acetone and other fixatives that quickly penetrate cell preparations and denature proteins to stabilize cell structures. This preserves cell morphology and allows for optimal staining.
The application of fixation spray is simple and convenient. After a smear preparation is made on a slide, the fixation spray is sprayed onto the specimen at an even distance. It is important to apply the spray quickly to avoid drying and distortion of the cells. After fixation, the specimen can be further processed, stained and examined under the microscope.
