Non-inactivated type | does not contain lysate, can maintain the activity and integrity of the pathogen, can be used for virus culture and isolation. |
Inactivated type | can instantly decompose the pathogen to release nucleic acid, the protective agent can prevent the nucleic acid from being degraded. The viral transport medium can be used to influenza, avian influenza, hand, foot and mouth disease, measles and other nasopharyngeal pathogen specimen collection, preservation and transportation. |
Non-inactivated type | On the basis of Hank's, added BSA (bovine serum albumin) amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients required by the virus, which can maintain the activity of the virus in a wide range of temperature and keep the original nature of the sample to the maximum extent, and can be used for the nucleic acid extraction and detection of the virus, the culture and isolation of the virus. |
Inactivated type | The collected samples are fully mixed with virus lysate and virus nucleic acid preservation solution to inactivate the virus in the samples. Colleagues effectively ensure the integrity of virus nucleic acid in the samples, and the collected samples can be transported and stored for a long time under normal temperature.The stored virus RNA samples can be widely used in gene detection, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), PCR detection, etc. |
Non-inactivated type | 4-25ºC. After sampling, it should be transported to the laboratory within 48 hours below 2-8ºC, or stored below -70ºC. |
Inactivated type | 30 days at room temperature |
