Congo red as a fluorochrome for the rapid detection of fungi.

M Slifkin1, R Cumbie.   

Abstract

Congo red may be applied as a fluorochrome to rapidly detect fungi in clinical specimens, tissue, and fungal culture preparations. This generally available stain is cost effective and simple to prepare. The stain may be prepared with potassium permanganate as a counterstain or with Formalin or glutaraldehyde as a fungicide.
