QBC ParaLens: Testimonials

Medical professionals from around the world have expressed their excitement about the one-of-a-kind benefits of the ParaLens Microscope Adapter.

"We have tested the QBC ParaLens with Auramine-Rhodamine and Auramine O for AFB detection and found it to work as well as a classical fluorescent microscope.  Furthermore, it is easy to use, easy to transport, is relatively inexpensive, and provides excellent quality of images."

"Recently we purchased a QBC ParaLens. Our objective was to use their ParaLens system to convert an ordinary microscope into a functional fluorescence microscope.  Their system is very good and practical.  They provide an excellent lens system and the quality of images are as good as one would obtain from expensive epifluorescence microscopes such as Leitz.  Without any hesitation I recommend to use their system converting any ordinary microscope for immuno-fluorescence work."

"The [ParaLens and Autoread Plus] are also doing great.  I took my time to investigate [their] superiority over the conventional blood films and confirmed [their] high sensitivity and ability to detect very mild infections with minimal stress"

"The ParaLens system has been a welcome addition to the laboratory diagnosis of TB.  Working worldwide, I have often been in laboratories that are hampered by traditional and insensitive methods for AFB detection.  Therefore having a portable fluorescent system will revolutionize AFB smear microscopy and go a long way to providing clinicians with more accurate and sensitive tests for the diagnosis of tuberculosis disease."

"We have found [the ParaLens] to be an invaluable tool for the diagnosis of tuberculosis.  It is easy to set up and use and requires minimal training to become adept at reading slides.  With its small size and portability, we can take it to remote locations.  I would recommend its use to other non-profit and government organizations."
