Specifications A combination mixture for decontamination and liquefaction of specimen. N-Acetyl L-cysteine (NALC) is a mucolytic agent that can rapidly digest sputum when used at a concentration of 0.5 to 2.0%. Decontamination is achieved by the addition of sodium hydroxide, while sodium citrate gives stabilizing effect on the NALC by chelating heavy metal ions present in the specimen and which may inactivate the NALC. The phosphate buffer minimizes the continuing action of NaOH and also allows the efficient sedimentation of mycobacteria by centrifugation, by lowering the specific gravity of the specimen.Storage and Shelf Life Store at 2-8°C.
