INTENDED USE
Hecin Specimen Collection Medium (SCM) is designed to rapidly
inactivate pathogen in specimen, including swabs, and cultured samples.
The pathogen in the SCM can be completely decomposed to release
nucleic acid, then the released nucleic acid can be extracted for nucleic
acid testing.
PRINCIPLE
Hecin Specimen Collection Medium contains guanidine salt and
other ingredients. Viruses (or other pathogens) in oropharyngeal swabs,
nasopharyngeal swabs and other samples can be lysed to release nucleic
acids in the medium. Meanwhile, the unique composition of SCM can
also protect released RNA and DNA from degradation by RNases and
DNases. The samples in this medium can be used for subsequent nucleic
acid extraction for molecular testing.
