Viral Transport Media (VTM) are suitable for collection, transport, maintenance, and long-term freeze storage of clinical specimens containing viruses, chlamydia, mycoplasma, or ureaplasma organisms. It maintains organism viability for 48 hours at room or refrigerated temperature.

UTM® Universal Transport Medium™ preserves the viability of all target organisms tested for 48 hours at both room and refrigerated temperatures; it can also be stored at -80°C for one year. A phenol red pH indicator provides a visual gauge of UTM® Universal Transport Medium™ integrity throughout the storage and life of the product.

Viral transport medium (VTM) is a solution used to preserve virus specimens after collection so that they can be transported and analysed in a laboratory at a later time. Unless stored in an ultra low temperature freezer or in liquid nitrogen, virus samples, and especially RNA virus samples, are prone to degradation.

2022年1月3日 · A viral transport media (VTM) is a nutrient substance used to carry and maintain the viability of specimens (viruses) to a laboratory for the identification and further processing of the sample. Transport media for viruses are especially important as they are more labile than other infectious agents.

2024年2月5日 · Viral Transport Media (VTM) is essential for protecting the viability of viral samples throughout transportation, ensuring the stability of genetic material, and aiding virus isolation. This comprehensive overview looks into the significance of VTM, its composition, and the critical considerations for its use in a variety of laboratory settings.

VTM (Viral Transport Medium) is a culture medium designed for the non- propagating transport of viruses from clinical patient specimens for the measurement of viral particles using molecular or antigen assays.

2024年5月17日 · Viral Transport Media (VTM) is a crucial component in the field of virology and diagnostic medicine. It refers to a specialized nutrient substance designed to facilitate the safe transportation and preservation of viral specimens from the collection site to the laboratory for further analysis, identification, and processing.

VTM is suitable for collection and preservation of clinical specimens containing viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), Chlamydia spp., Mycoplasma spp. and Ureaplasma spp. The transport medium can be used with swabs and aspirates and is available in a plastic, screw cap tube.

Viral Transport Medium (VTM) is used to safely transfer viruses, chlamydiae, and mycoplasma for further research and analytics after sample collection. The solution acts as a chemical preservative and allows safe transport to the laboratory and a reliable analysis thereafter.

Our VΤM is intended for transporting clinical specimens suspected to contain SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) for subsequent testing using biochemical, molecular assays (RNA extraction and PCR/RT-PCR), antigen assays, or other validated diagnostic protocols.
