vNAT® Transfer Tube 

The vNAT® Transfer Tube is a single-use in vitro diagnostic (IVD) medical device designed for the storage and stabilization of nucleic acids from nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, throat, rectal, vaginal, cervical, urethral, urogenital, endocervical, penile, and conjunctival swab samples. Each tube contains 2 mL of vNAT® reagent, which efficiently lyses cells, releases nucleic acids, and preserves them for downstream molecular diagnostic applications. The reagent also rapidly inactivates pathogens within 1 minute, reducing the risk of transmission and ensuring biosafety. Clinical specimens can be directly transferred into the vNAT®Transfer Tube, where nucleic acids remain stabilized for molecular testing. The preserved sample is compatible with Real-Time PCR (qPCR) assays without the need for separate nucleic acid extraction, enabling rapid and efficient molecular diagnostics. The vNAT® Transfer Tube is intended for professional use in sampling and sample storage environments of the healthcare providers.
