FTA Elute Micro Card, Indicating, 1 Sample Area Per Card, 25 Pk SKU: WB120412

Qiagen FTA technology consists of two distinct chemistries, both of which have the ability to lyse cells on contact, denature proteins, and protect D from degradation. FTA lute contains a chaotropic salt. With FTA Elute, proteins remain tightly bound while D is eluted from the matrix. With FTA Elute, eluted D can be used for STR analysis (standard amplification), sequencing, and real-time PCR applications.

FTA Elute cards are available as indicating cards for use with clear samples, such as buccal cells or saliva. The cards include a purple indicating dye that turns to white when a clear sample is applied.

Features:

• Improves process efficiency by enabling direct amplification for STR analysis due to immediate D capture on the FTA card.
• Includes an inert dye, which turns to white when a buccal sample or saliva is added for easy confirmation of sample addition.
• Immediate stabilization and protection of nucleic acids for long term archiving of samples at room temperature.
• Different card options to support manual or automated processing for versatility and incorporation into current workflows.
