Auramine staining in detecting small number of bacilli in skin smears.

V N Bhatia1, E Cherian, S Harikrishnan.   

Abstract

Auramine staining has been compared with Ziehl-Neelsen's staining of M. leprae in skin smear slide. The auramine method was found to be more sensitive than Ziehl-Neelsen's method and may be useful in detecting small number of M. leprae in skin smears. The inter-observer variance was minimal with auramine staining.
