MEIDIKE GENE VTM Kit

病毒转运培养基 (VTM) kits are essential tools for safely collecting, storing, and transporting biological specimens for laboratory testing. Proper usage ensures accurate test results and prevents sample degradation.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Using the VTM Kit

1. 收集样本

Use a sterile swab to collect your sample as specified in the instructions.

2. Placing the Swab in the Sampling Tube

Insert the swab containing the sample into the sampling tube carefully.

3. Breaking the Swab

Locate the designated break-off point on the swab rod.
Snap the swab at this point and discard the tail of the rod.

4. Securing the Sampling Tube

Ensure that the cover of the sampling tube is tightly sealed to prevent leaks.

5. Labeling the Tube

Clearly mark any required information on the label of the sampling tube, such as date and sample type.

6. Transporting the Samples

Room Temperature Storage: Samples should be transported to the corresponding laboratory within 3 到 7 天, 常温保存.
Long-term Storage: If the samples cannot be sent within 7 天, store them at -80°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain sample quality.

Main Sampling Methods

喉咙拭子

Use a throat swab to gently wipe the posterior pharyngeal wall and both tonsils; avoid contact with the tongue.
Quickly dip the swab head into the preserving fluid.
Break the swab at the designated break-off point and discard the rod’s tail.

鼻拭子

Gently insert the nasal swab into the nasal passage until it touches the palatine area.
Maintain contact with the palatine for a moment, then slowly turn the swab and withdraw it from the nose.
