Brand: Biolab Diagnostics
Product: RAPID-PAP Cytoplasm Stain – A
Catalogue No.: CY 1585
Pack Size: 500 mL
Category: Cytology Stain / PAP Staining Reagent
Intended User: Professional Laboratory Personnel
Biolab RAPID-PAP Cytoplasm Stain A is intended for use as part of a professional cytology staining workflow.
Typical laboratory applications include:
The reagent should be used as one stage within the appropriate Biolab RAPID-PAP staining procedure and not as a standalone diagnostic test.
In Papanicolaou-type staining, separate nuclear and cytoplasmic staining stages are used to create contrast between cell nuclei and cytoplasmic structures.
Biolab RAPID-PAP Cytoplasm Stain A is one of the cytoplasmic staining components in the manufacturer's RAPID-PAP system.
The complete Biolab Rapid-PAP range includes:
These reagents are intended to work together in a defined staining sequence to provide appropriate cellular contrast for microscopic evaluation.
Important: the exact dye chemistry and specific role of Stain A should follow the current Biolab bottle label / IFU. Biolab's public product page does not currently publish the detailed formulation.
| Biolab RAPID-PAP Component | Primary Role |
|---|---|
| Nuclear Stain | Nuclear staining stage |
| Cytoplasm Stain – A | Cytoplasmic staining stage within the RAPID-PAP system |
| Cytoplasm Stain – B | Additional cytoplasmic staining / differentiation stage according to Biolab method |
| RAPID-PAP Dehydrant | Dehydration / processing stage |
| Complete RAPID-PAP Stain Kit | Complete rapid PAP staining workflow |
Use the reagent combination specified in the current Biolab staining protocol.
Biolab separately markets a RAPID-PAP STAIN KIT as a rapid approximately 3-minute PAP staining system.
Cytoplasm Stain A is sold separately as a replacement / individual reagent within this product family.
Do not assume that Stain A alone completes a 3-minute PAP staining procedure. The full workflow requires the appropriate nuclear, cytoplasmic and processing reagents according to the Biolab protocol.
The exact staining sequence and exposure time must follow the current Biolab RAPID-PAP IFU.
A general professional cytology staining workflow may involve:
Do not substitute contact times from another PAP staining manufacturer.
Final specimen suitability must follow the laboratory's validated SOP and the current Biolab instructions.
Biolab's historical catalogue lists approximately 3 years shelf life for RAPID-PAP Cytoplasm Stain A.
Biolab's commercial manufacturer listing describes storage at room temperature.
Recommended professional handling includes:
The actual bottle label and current manufacturer IFU take precedence over online information.

Cytology staining quality may be affected by:
A cytology stain does not itself establish a clinical diagnosis. Final microscopic interpretation must be performed by appropriately qualified cytology / pathology professionals.
Information on this page is intended for product identification, professional procurement and educational reference and does not replace Biolab's IFU, laboratory SOP or professional cytopathology interpretation.
This is a professional laboratory reagent and is method-, formulation-, pack-, storage- and expiry-sensitive.
Please verify before ordering:
A correctly supplied reagent cannot normally be returned or exchanged because the wrong PAP stain component, formulation, pack size or laboratory requirement was selected.
Laboratory stains and diagnostic reagents are storage-sensitive, contamination-sensitive and expiry-sensitive consumables and cannot normally be returned to saleable inventory after correct delivery.
Genuine cases involving incorrect supply, verified transit damage, materially misdescribed goods or remedies required under applicable Indian law will be handled according to the Microsidd Refund, Return, Replacement & Cancellation Policy.
An original, continuous, unedited and uncut unboxing video is compulsory for delivery-related claims involving an incorrect, missing or damaged product.
Begin recording before opening the parcel. Open the shipping carton carefully by cutting the sealing tape with a blade or suitable cutter; do not tear the carton. Keep the courier label, sealed Biolab reagent, product name, catalogue number, batch and expiry continuously visible.
