BIOPSY KIDNEY WITH SPECIAL STAINS AND IF Test
Introduction
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the BIOPSY KIDNEY WITH SPECIAL STAINS AND IF Test, a medical procedure that involves the removal of a small piece of kidney tissue for examination under a microscope. This test provides valuable information about the condition of the kidneys and can help diagnose kidney diseases.
Test Components
- Tissue in 2 bottles:
- 1 bottle contains tissue preserved in 10% neutral buffered formalin for biopsy.
- 1 bottle contains tissue preserved in phosphate buffered saline/Michels media for immunofluorescence (IF) analysis.

Test Details
A kidney biopsy is a medical procedure that involves the removal of a small piece of kidney tissue for examination under a microscope. The BIOPSY KIDNEY WITH SPECIAL STAINS AND IF Test goes a step further by utilizing special stains and immunofluorescence (IF) techniques to analyze the tissue sample in more detail.
Special stains are used to highlight specific components of the kidney tissue, such as collagen, amyloid, or certain types of cells. These stains help identify abnormal deposits, inflammation, or structural changes in the kidney.
Immunofluorescence is a technique that uses fluorescent antibodies to detect specific proteins or antigens in the kidney tissue. It aids in identifying immune complexes, antibodies, or other molecules that may be involved in kidney diseases like glomerulonephritis or autoimmune disorders.
By combining the information obtained from routine histology, special stains, and immunofluorescence, our pathologists can provide a more comprehensive diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment for kidney diseases.

A kidney biopsy is a medical procedure where a small piece of kidney tissue is removed for examination under a microscope. Special stains and immunofluorescence (IF) techniques can be used to further analyze the tissue sample and provide additional information about the kidney condition.

These stains can help identify abnormal deposits, inflammation, or structural changes in the kidney.
