The blood sample collection card, FTA-compatible, is designed for DNA testing, enabling safe collection, stabilization, and direct processing of blood samples in forensics and clinics.
Core Content
-
Design: Cellulose-based card treated with FTA reagents (lyse cells, inactivate pathogens, preserve DNA); pre-scored for easy sample division.
-
Usage: Spot blood sample on card; air-dry 30 mins; store in moisture-proof bag; punch card disc directly for DNA extraction.
Key Features
-
FTA compatibility: Works with standard FTA DNA extraction protocols for seamless lab processing.
-

-
Long-term DNA preservation: Maintains intact DNA for 10+ years at room temperature.
-
Convenient: Pre-scored design allows splitting samples for multiple tests or archives.
Application Scope
-
Forensic DNA testing: Crime scene blood sample collection for suspect/victim profiling.
-
Clinical genetics: Patient blood sampling for hereditary disease screening and genetic analysis.
-
Wildlife forensics: Blood sample preservation for species identification and poaching investigations.
