FTA Elute Micro Card, 4 Sample Areas Per Card, Non-Indicating, 100/Pk
Qiagen SKU: WB120410

Qiagen FTA Elute Micro Card, 4 Sample Areas Per Card, 100/Pk - WB120410

FTA Elute treated cellulose holds DNA and RNA at room temperature, then frees the nucleic acid into FTA Elute Buffer. The FTA Elute matrix pairs with optional Proteinase K and QIAshredder cleanup and releases nucleic acid into an aqueous buffer. For workflows that need liquid eluate, FTA Elute frees room-temperature-stored nucleic acid into a ready-to-use volume.

Key Characteristics

• Eluted template feeds liquid-phase amplification and quantification
• Validated room-temperature nucleic-acid stability for over 20 years
• Lighter FTA-type chemistry lyses cells and stabilizes nucleic acid
• Larger 3.0 mm punch carries more sample into the elution step
• Pairs with FTA Elute Buffer, optional Proteinase K, and QIAshredder

Room-temperature collection lets your samples travel from the field to the lab without freezers or dry ice. Room-temperature sample collection fits the way your specimens are gathered and shipped without the freezers, dry ice, or cold-chain logistics other formats demand.

• Room-Temperature Transport - Spotted samples stay stable at ambient temperature for years, then elute on demand for molecular testing.
• RT-qPCR Templates - Stabilized RNA and DNA elute into aqueous buffer to support reverse-transcription quantitative PCR quantification.
• Eluted DNA Genotyping - Released template from FTA Elute punches supports SNP genotyping and downstream sequencing across study cohorts.
• Nucleic Acid Elution - Lighter FTA chemistry releases stabilized DNA into FTA Elute Buffer for downstream amplification and analysis.
• HPV PCR Detection - Eluted nucleic acid from a 3.0 mm Qiagen punch supports sensitive human papillomavirus PCR screening assays.
• Amplicon Sequencing Prep - Buffer-eluted template feeds targeted amplicon library preparation for NGS and resequencing assays.
