TransFix is a cellular antigen stabilisation solution that prevents cellular degradation in a variety of specimen types for flow cytometric analysis. TransFix Sample Storage Tubes (SST) are ideal for use where blood specimens have already been collected in EDTA direct collection tubes.
TransFix Sample Storage Tubes (SST) consist of 1.2ml tubes containing 0.2ml of TransFix. These tubes do not contain an anti-coagulant.
Benefits of TransFix SSTs
Easy to use – just add sample and mix by inversion
Flexibility when receiving samples already anti-coagulated
Ensures sample integrity during transportation between clinical sites
Eliminates the need for weekend and evening work
Reduces the impact of unexpected machine breakdown or staff shortages
Allows for repeat testing of samples without the need for patient recall and repeat sampling
Greater efficiency in testing – allows for batching of samples prior to testing
Reduction in costs associated with the above advantages
