Qiagen FTA Elute Micro Card, Indicating, 1 Sample Area Per Card, 25 Pk - WB120412

Qiagen FTA Elute cards lyse the sample on contact and release purified nucleic acid into an aqueous eluate for downstream work. A larger 3.0 mm punch carries ample sample into the elution step while releasing nucleic acid into an aqueous buffer and ruptures cells at the point of collection. Where archived cards must yield solution-phase template, decades of stable storage give up clean nucleic acid on elution.

Key Characteristics

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

Collecting a biological sample that survives handling and ships without a cold chain keeps your study on schedule. Room-temperature sample collection fits the way your specimens are gathered and shipped unifying your collection sites and your laboratory on one simple format.

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