Virus sampling tubes are used for the collection, preservation and transportation of virus specimens such as novel coronavirus, influenza virus, avian influenza (H7N9, etc.), measles, mycoplasma and chlamydia specimens.
Why choose an excellent virus sampling tube
Because the quality of the collected samples is directly related to the subsequent examination, if you use bad sampling swabs and virus preservation solution, then the collected samples do not have high viral content, and with the changes in the tiny environment of survival, stage decomposition occurs, which can easily affect the test results and make it difficult to determine the diagnosis or easy to misdiagnosis, etc. Therefore, by using professional virus sampling tubes, so that the validity of the samples can be guaranteed and Reduce virus false negatives and misdiagnosis.
What are the requirements for a good virus sampling tube?
The most important feature of a good virus sampling tube is that the number of viruses collected and released is much higher than that of an ordinary virus sampling tube, and the activity and integrity of the virus particles are guaranteed, which provides the primary guarantee for subsequent virus isolation and nucleic acid detection.
1, sample effectiveness: non-inactivated virus preservation solution must maintain the activity of the pathogen infection factor, preferably at room temperature can preserve the activity of the virus. Inactivated virus preservation solution needs to inactivate the virus but maintain the nucleic acid of the virus to meet the time from sample sampling to laboratory testing. It is necessary to limit and prevent the propagation of commensal microorganisms to ensure the reliability of diagnostic tests.
2, safety aspects: because the virus sampling tube carries basically infectious material, part of the highly pathogenic infectious material, so the packaging container requirements are very strict, need to meet the safety while ensuring that the liquid does not leak during transport.
