Disposable virus sampling tube kit
The virus sampling tube consists of swab + sampling tube + virus preservation solution.
That is, flocked swab, virus sampling tube and virus transport medium.VTM
Why use a disposable virus sampling tube kit？
Virus is a very tiny organism, which is composed of nucleic acid and protein shell. Without its own metabolic mechanism, there is no protease system. Therefore, if the virus leaves the host cell, it cannot continue to survive. Such tiny creatures can bring us many diseases, such as RNA, influenza, HIV and H1N1 viruses. Because it has no cellular structure, the virus itself cannot replicate. Instead, it invades the gene into the host cell and replicates a new virus with the help of the latter’s replication system.
In order to maintain the activity of virus samples and prolong the survival time of virus in samples.
The sampling swab will be stored and transported in the preservation solution.

Brief introduction
1. In the current COVID-19 epidemic situation, virus sample collection is an important link in virus detection.
2. Disposable virus sampling tube kits can collect, transport, inactivate and store virus samples in specific parts of human body. (not available in the United States).
So what’s the difference between the non inactivated and inactivated virus sampling tubes?
about non inactivated and inactivated virus sampling Virus transport medium
In short, the non inactivated sampling tube can protect the protein nucleic acid of the virus, so that the sampled virus has its originality, better integrity and higher detection rate. In addition to nucleic acid detection, scientists can also use non inactivated samples in other virus research experiments.
Advantages:
★ easy to operate and use
★ add virus stabilizing components to maintain virus activity in a wide temperature range
And reduce the decomposition rate of virus (non inactivated type)
1. Low temperature non freezing storage, does not damage the shell of the virus, and is convenient for long-distance transportation.
2. Applicable to all kinds of swab samples, including oral swab, nasal swab, throat swab, etc.
★ it contains virus lysate and virus nucleic acid preservation solution, which can quickly lyse the virus
Release nucleic acid and stably store nucleic acid (inactivated type)
The inactivated sampling tube contains cleavage salt, which can destroy the protein of the virus. However, it can protect the nucleic acid of the virus, so that the virus has no infectious activity. The sampling virus in the inactivated sampling tube can prevent the risk of secondary infection and ensure the safety of transportation and testing personnel.
note
1. forbidden to directly contact the preservation solution with virus samples.
2. forbidden to infiltrate the swab with preservation solution before sampling.
3. only used for the collection, transportation and preservation of virus samples. It shall not be used beyond the expected purpose.
4. Before using this product, pay attention to the shelf life and whether the packaging is intact.
