What is a virus sampling swab kit?

The virus sampling swab set is a virus sampling and transfer product for virus nucleic acid detection.

It generally consists of a sampling swab, a sampling tube and a virus preservation solution.

For the nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal new coronavirus sampling swab sets.

Also known as virus transport medium (Viral Transport Medium), referred to as VTM.

According to the composition and function of virus preservation solution, it includes non-inactivated and inactivated types.

The purpose of the single-use virus sampling tube:

The single-use virus transport medium with tube is our company’s best-selling star product. It is suitable for the collection and transfer storage of various influenza viruses, clinical new coronaviruses, influenza,  measles and other virus samples. nucleic acid extraction and later virus isolation.

It is also suitable for collecting and transporting specimens such as Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, and Ureaplasma urealyticum.

Specimens are usually collected from the oral cavity, throat, nasopharynx, anus, and other human body parts.

Combination features of our single-use virus sampling tube kits (vtm swab kits):

Disposable virus sampling tubes include sampling swabs and sampling tubes (vtm kits).

1. Sampling flocking swab: our company uses a nylon flocking swab (vtm swab). Because nylon flocking has no toxic effect on microorganisms and viruses and does not contain RNase and DNase.

It can maximize the collection and release of virus samples and ensure the accuracy of PCR test results.

The flocked swab rod: ABS material, with a unique breakpoint design.

Convenient to put into the sampling tube without contamination.

2. Virus sampling tube: The tube body and tube cover are made of polypropylene, which will not deform at high temperature and high pressure (121°C, 15min).  And will not become brittle at low temperatures (-196°C).

Resistant to static extrusion and dynamic impact.

The bottom cone design is resistant to centrifugation and shock.

They are packed with a transport medium (inactivated type, preserved type) for the release and preservation of samples to prevent leakage.

The sampling tube has built-in magnetic beads, which are convenient for elution and facilitate the release of more viruses into the virus transport medium.

Before the higher positive rate of PCR detection, the storage solution in the virus sampling tube was Hank’s solution.

Now, the virus sampling tube preservation solution has been upgraded to CellMedical virus preservation solution.

(that is, UTM, recommended by the World Health Organization and the National Influenza Center of China.)

Based on hank’s solution, BSA, HEPES, amino acids, glycerin and other ingredients. A high PCR test is positive.

Virus preservation solution includes non-inactivated virus transport medium and inactivated virus

In the non-inactivated COVID-19 sampling swab set, the components of the virus preservation solution usually include nutrients (such as salts, proteins, glucose), bacteriostatic agents, buffers, phenol red indicator, etc. required for the survival of the virus.

This virus preservation solution can maintain the activity of the virus to the greatest extent.

Not only for virus detection but also for virus culture and isolation.

In the inactivated new coronavirus sampling swab kit, the components of the virus preservation solution usually include buffers, virus lysing agents (usually guanidines), surfactants, etc.

This preservation solution can directly lyse the virus to release nucleic acid, which is convenient for subsequent nucleic acid detection.

China Vtm Swab Supplier

We are a well-known professional manufacturer of medical sampling and preservation products.

Our company has a number of patents.

Mainly used in genetic testing, biopharmaceuticals, large-scale A-level hospitals, entry-exit inspection and quarantine, diagnostic reagents, CDC, public security criminal investigation, forensic identification and other medical institutions.

vtm swab kits feature

Safety: Contains virus inactivator efficacy to ensure no risk of leakage and infection.
Functionality: Inactivate the virus while protecting the activity of viral RNA and protein, which can be used for viral nucleic acid detection, antigen detection, IgM, IgG antibody detection,) (other products that only preserve RNA are used for viral nucleic acid detection);
Effectiveness: Equipped with a special virus sampling flocked swab, the virus release rate is more than 95% (more than 3 times higher than ordinary cotton swabs).
Stability: It can be effectively stored for 144 hours at 2-8℃, which is convenient for transportation and mailing.
Versatility: Applicable to various viruses such as new coronavirus, influenza, HPV, hand, foot and mouth disease, measles, etc.
