iClean® Virus Transport System in Clinical Detection

In the current field of healthcare, the rapid and accurate detection of viruses is crucial for the diagnosis and prevention and control of diseases. The iClean® Virus Transport System (VTM-RT) plays a key role in this process.

In terms of specific applications, this system is widely used in clinical virus detection. In respiratory virus detection, whether it is influenza virus or novel coronavirus, etc., after medical staff collect nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab samples from patients, they can place them in VTM-RT for transport. This ensures the activity of the virus during the transport process and provides a reliable sample for subsequent nucleic acid detection, etc. In intestinal virus detection, such as hand, foot and mouth disease virus, the system can also safely and effectively transport samples such as fecal, oropharyngeal swab or herpes fluid.

The characteristics of the iClean® Virus Transport System are significant. Firstly, it has an efficient sample preservation ability. The preservation solution in the system contains nutrients to maintain the activity of the virus and buffer agents to stabilize the pH value, which can maximize the stability of the virus during the transport process. Secondly, the good sealing ensures that the sample will not leak during the transport process, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Moreover, the system is compatible with various detection methods and equipment, facilitating the transport and detection of samples between different laboratories and detection platforms.

Some precautions need to be noted when using this system. When collecting samples, it is necessary to strictly follow the operating procedures to ensure the quality of the samples. During the transport process, attention should be paid to maintaining the integrity of the system, avoiding adverse factors such as collision and high temperature. At the same time, samples should be delivered to the laboratory for testing in time to avoid long-term placement.

This system has many advantages. It provides a high-quality sample transport solution for clinical detection, greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection. Its convenient operation and good compatibility enable medical staff and laboratory staff to work efficiently. Moreover, the sealing and stability of the system also provide a strong guarantee for preventing virus spread and ensuring the safety of personnel.
