The iClean® Virus Transport Medium System (VTM-RT) may have the following advantages:

Virus Inactivation Protection: It contains highly effective virus inactivation ingredients that can quickly inactivate the viruses in the samples. This greatly reduces the risk of virus transmission during the processes of sample collection, transportation, and detection, ensuring the safety of transportation and testing personnel.
Leak-proof Design: The tube body and tube cap are made of high-quality materials, such as polypropylene, with excellent sealing performance. It can ensure that the samples do not leak during transportation, avoiding biosafety accidents.

Nucleic Acid Stability: The preservation solution contains components like RNase inhibitory ingredients, which can effectively prevent the degradation of nucleic acids. It can maintain the integrity of the virus nucleic acid within the specified time, ensuring the accuracy of the detection results and reducing the occurrence of false negative results.
Flexible Preservation Conditions: It can be preserved at room temperature for a certain period of time, which has great advantages in situations where cold chain transportation is not immediately available, improving the feasibility and convenience of sample transfer. It can also preserve samples at low temperatures for a long time to meet different detection and research needs.
Stable Ingredients: The ingredients of the preservation solution are stable and can be transported routinely, being less likely to be affected by external environmental factors. This ensures the effective preservation of virus samples in different environments.

Efficient Sampling: When paired with high-quality flocked swabs, it can achieve efficient sample collection and release. It can collect a large number of virus samples, increasing the positive detection rate.
Wide Application Range: It is suitable for the collection of various viruses, including different types of influenza viruses, avian influenza viruses, coronavirus, hand-foot-and-mouth disease viruses, measles and rubella viruses, etc. It can also be used for the collection and transportation of specimens such as Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, and Ureaplasma urealyticum.
High Compatibility: It has good compatibility with various virus nucleic acid extraction reagents and detection methods, such as magnetic bead extraction, column membrane extraction, and detection methods like real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and RT-PCR, facilitating subsequent detection operations.

Simple Operation: It is convenient to use, and the sampling process is simple and quick without complex operation steps, making it easy for medical staff and sampling personnel to master.
Easy Storage and Transportation: The collected samples can be stored and transported at room temperature without the need for special refrigeration equipment, reducing the cost and difficulty of transportation and improving the efficiency of sample transfer.
