PRINCIPLE OF ASSAY

Transport Medium Plus is a ready-to-use sterile pink buffer–salt solution supplemented with mucolytic, preservative, and stabilizing agents. The mucolytic agent ensures liquefaction of mucus, provides effective and homogenous mixing of clinical material with the transport medium. The preservative and stabilizing agents prevent the growth of nonspecific microflora and premature lysis of cell, providing long-term stability of RNA/DNA of microorganisms and viruses in a wide temperature range.
