Abstract EN
Background: Corn Syrup is food syrup higher of carbohydrate, depending on grade.
The study aimed to assess efficiency of Corn syrup as cytological fixative.
Subjects and methods: This was laboratory based study, it has been conducted at Elrazi University included apparently 30 healthy students have been involved in this study.
Results: Out of 30 smears fixed with 95% alcohol, 76.7% (n=23) shows excellent nuclear stain, 23.3% (n= 7) shows good nuclear stain.
70% (n=21) show excellent cytoplasmic stain, 26.7% (n=8) shows good cytoplasmic stain, 3.3% (n=1) shows poor cytoplasmuc stain.
Out of 30 smears fixed with corn solution, 60% (n=18) shows excellent nuclear stain, 40% (n=12) good nuclear stain, 3.3 % (n=1) shows excellent cytoplasmic stain, 83.3% (n=25) shows good cytoplasmic stain, 13.3% (n=4) shows bad cytoplasmic stain.
Conclusion: Study concluded that Corn syrup can be used as cytological fixative alternatively to 95% ethyl alcohol.
