Caption:
Under a magnification of 570X, this fluorescent antibody (FA) stained sample, rinsed in an isotonic phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, revealed a negative result for an antinuclear factor (ANF) test, also referred to as antinuclear antibodies (ANAs). ANA detection, can be used in the diagnosis of some autoimmune disorders, whereupon, an individual’s own body begins to create these antibodies in order to attack itself.
