Benefits
Better, safer, and more efficient sample collection.
PrimeStore MTM was designed with the belief that nucleic acid quality begins at the moment of collection. Its unique characteristics can accelerate efforts to identify and control seasonal, endemic, and pandemic diseases (such as influenza, and M. tuberculosis), opening up timely, accurate testing.
PrimeStore® MTM is FDA De Novo classified as a Class II microbial nucleic acid storage and stabilization device under 21 CFR 866.2950, with cleared indications for stabilization, transportation, and inactivation of infectious unprocessed nasal washes suspected of containing Influenza A virus RNA and infectious unprocessed sputum samples suspected of containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA from human samples.
Users should follow applicable biosafety regulations, institutional biosafety committee requirements, and site-specific validated procedures for all uses.
