General description

FTA Cards offer a compact room-temperature storage system that reduces the need for precious freezer space. Unlike the QIAcard FTA cards, the FTA Elute cards feature a technology for convenient water based elution of nucleic acids.

QIAcard FTA Elute Micro format with one spot area (spot volume 12-40 µL) to collect, stabilize, process, transport, and archive colored samples such as blood. FTA technology enables cell lysis on contact, denatures proteins and immediate stabilization and protection of nucleic acids.

Convenient for protocols that require different locations for testing and archiving samples. Different samples can be processed independently.

Features and Benefits

  • Includes a pink dye that turns white when a colorless sample is applied.
  • One sample area for application of up to 40 μl sample volume per card.
  • Simply apply your sample to the FTA Card. Cell membranes and organelles are lysed and the released nucleic acids are entrapped in the fibers of the matrix. The nucleic acids remain immobilized and are preserved for transport, immediate processing or long-term room temperature storage.
  • Since captured nucleic acids are preserved, FTA Cards facilitate sample collection in remote locations and simplify sample transport.
  • Ship your samples back to the laboratory without expensive special handling or dry ice and process at your convenience.
  • FTA Cards can be used with virtually any sample type: Blood, Cultured cells, Buccal cells, Plasmids, and Solid tissue.
  • Captured nucleic acids are ready for purification when you are. The FTA Elute technology enables convenient water-based elution of nucleic acids for downstream experiments.
