Virus sampling tube use for the CDC part, the clinical part of the infectious pathogenic microbial surveillance sampling use. Applicable to influenza virus (general influenza, highly pathogenic avian influenza, influenza A (H1N1) virus, etc.), hand, foot and mouth virus and other types of virus sampling. Also used for sampling of mycoplasma, chlamydia, ureaplasma, etc. Used for transporting nasopharyngeal swab specimens or site-specific tissue specimens from the sampling site to the testing laboratory, pending PCR extraction and testing. Used to preserve nasopharyngeal swab specimens or site-specific tissue specimens pending necessary cell culture.
Virus sampling tube is a product used for infectious disease specimen collection and delivery. It is not a single product, but a set of products consisting of sampling swab, sampling preservation solution and plastic tube. The sampling process: sampling the patient with the sampling swab; placing the preservation solution in the plastic tube; placing the sample in the sample preservation solution of the plastic tube for preservation; transporting the preserved sample to the laboratory; and starting the test.
The requirements of the virus sampling tube are three in total, including delivery, preservation and usefulness of the sample. In terms of delivery, it is necessary to ensure that the sample will not leak during delivery; in terms of preservation, it is necessary to ensure that the sample will not leak during preservation;
and in terms of usefulness of the sample, it is necessary to ensure that the sampling tube itself will not have toxic effects on the sample and avoid affecting the substances collected in the sampling tube, which will then affect the test results.
Because the sampling tube is loaded with infectious substances, and even some of them are still highly pathogenic rational substances, so there will be very high requirements for the packaging container.
Virus sampling tube preservation solution can be used for new coronavirus, influenza, avian influenza, hand, foot and mouth disease, measles and other nasopharyngeal pathogens specimen collection, preservation and delivery.
By mixing the collected samples with virus lysate and virus nucleic acid preservation solution, the inactivation of the virus in the samples is achieved, and the integrity of the virus nucleic acid in the samples is ensured, and the collected specimens can be transported and stored for a long time under normal temperature conditions.
