Blood Specimen Tubes Purpose and description:
1. For clinical influenza, avian influenza (such as H7N9),
hand-foot-mouth virus, measles and other virus specimens, as well
as the collection and transportation of mycoplasma, ureaplasma, and
chlamydia specimens.
2. The virus and related samples are stored and transported within
48 hours under refrigeration (2-8 degrees).
3. Long-term storage of viruses and related samples in -80 degrees
environment or liquid nitrogen environment.

Blood Specimen Tubes Special Note:
a) If the collected sample is used for the detection of viral
nucleic acid, a nucleic acid extraction kit and nucleic acid
detection reagent shall be used in conjunction; if it is used for
virus isolation purposes, a cell culture medium shall be used in
conjunction.
b) Different application fields have different requirements for the
sample liquid filling volume, please select the appropriate product
according to the instructions in the ordering information:
For virus sampling tubes to collect virus samples from clinical
patients, the required liquid volume is generally 3.5ml or 5ml;
For virus sampling tube collection and short-term transportation of
avian influenza virus from the outside environment, the required
liquid volume is generally 5ml or 6ml.
Blood Specimen Tubes main components
Hank's liquid base, gentamicin, fungal antibiotic, BSA (V),
cryoprotectant, biological buffer and amino acid.
On the basis of Hank's, adding BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin fifth
component), HEPES and other virus stabilizing ingredients can
maintain the activity of the virus in a wide temperature range,
reduce the speed of virus decomposition, and increase the positive
rate of virus isolation.
How to use blood specimen tubes
1. Before sampling, mark the relevant sample information on the
label of the sampling tube.
2. According to different sampling requirements, use a sampling
swab to sample the corresponding part.
3. Quickly put the swab into the sterile sampling tube.
4. Break off the part of the sampling swab higher than the sampling
tube, and tighten the tube cap.
5. Freshly collected clinical specimens should be transported to
the laboratory within 48 hours at 4°C. If they cannot be sent to
the laboratory within 48 hours, they should be stored at -70°C or
below. Specimens should be inoculated and separated as soon as
possible after they are sent to the laboratory. Those that can be
inoculated and separated within 48 hours can be stored at 4°C. If
not inoculated, it should be stored at -70℃ or below.
6. The specific sampling methods are as follows:
a) Nasal swab: Gently insert the swab head into the nasal palate in
the nasal passage, stay for a while and then slowly rotate and
exit. Swab the other nostril with another swab, immerse the swab
head in the sampling solution, and discard the tail. (Suitable for
sampling with this product)
b) Pharyngeal swab: Use the swab to wipe the bilateral pharyngeal
tonsils and posterior wall of the pharynx. Similarly, immerse the
swab head in the sampling solution and discard the tail. (Suitable
for sampling with this product)
c) Autopsy tissue samples: Collect autopsy tissue samples for virus
isolation when necessary. The specimen is autopsy tissue.
d) Sampling of mycoplasma, chlamydia, and ureaplasma specimens:
male: insert a sterile cotton swab into the urethra about 2cm,
rotate, and stand still for a few seconds to collect the material.
Female: Wipe off the cervical mucus, insert a sterile swab into the
cervical canal 1-2cm to get the material.
