Description

General description

QIAcard^™ FTA^™ Gene (100) is a non-indicating three sample regions framed card utilized for the transportation, preservation, and collection of blood, cells, and tissue that are pigmented biological material.

Application

QIAcardQ^™ FTA^™ Gene (100) has been used for:

• molecular biology and amplifying the whole genome
• identification of animals, insects, and transgenics
• genomics and plasmid screening
• medical transfusions and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing
• drug development and short tandem repeat (STR) analysis
• testing food and agriculture

Features and Benefits

• Consists of a free radical scavenger and chemical denaturants
• Sample storage at ambient temperature for a long time
• Immediate DNA capture improves process efficiency for short tandem repeat (STR) analysis by allowing direct amplification
• Contained in stiff card frame allowing the use of automated pipetting/dispensing and punching devices
• Takes less than 30 minutes to capture nucleic acid for downstream applications
• While proteins and inhibitors are removed from the matrix, DNA stays firmly attached to flinders technology associates (FTA), at ambient temperature for years, minimizing laboratory freezers requirement.
• Proteins, however, remain strongly linked to flinders technology associates (FTA) elute during the matrix′s elution of DNA

Other Notes

Sample integrity is optimized when FTA^™ Cards are stored in a Multi-Barrier Pouch with a Desiccant Packet.

Apply only one blood sample to each card.

Field of Use : For internal research use only
