Sanjeet asked about a Fite control - I suppose Mycobacterium leprae
infected tissue for the Fite-Faraco modification of the visible-light
acid-fast stain.
It actually is necessary to use Myco. leprae (which of course is
unculturable) rather than Myco. tuberculosis when staining for lepra
bacilli.
Probably from one of these folks throwing away their blocks. A tragedy, I
tell you!

I am looking for a reputable vendor for Fite control slides. My pathologist
would prefer they be leprosy containing skin slides.
I also need the vendor to provide a positvely stained slide with the
procedure as well.
Thank you in advance
