Thumbnail Filmstrip of FTA Mini Card, Indicating, 2 Sample Areas Per Card, 25 Pk Images
QIAcard FTA Indicating cards and QIAcard FTA Elute Indicating cards are designed to stabilize and protect nucleic acids at room temperature.
With FTA Elute, proteins and PCR inhibitors (e.g., hemoglobin) remain at the FTA Elute matrix while DNA is eluted from the matrix. DNA is eluted in water, ready for subsequent downstream application, e.g., PCR.
QIAcard FTA Elute Indicating Micro cards are a promising tool to help fight the current COVID-19 pandemic. FTA cards are a suitable device for SARS-CoV-2 sample collection due to high RNA recovery, RNA stability for 7 days at 20°C and 30°C, sensitive PCR detection of viral RNA compared to direct saliva processing, and the potential for virus inactivation through sample lysis.
Features:
- Easy transfer and detection of colorless samples, such as buccal cells and saliva
- Improves process efficiency by enabling direct amplification for STR analysis
- Stabilization and protection of nucleic acids at room temperature
Common Applications:
- Forensics
- Human identification
- Biosecurity
- Paternity testing
- Molecular biology
*Not intended for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease.
