The PS-MTM system is a collection, preservation, transport, and storage system for influenza RNA and MTB DNA. Extraction and purification of nucleic acids have been validated on several manual spin column kits (PrimeXtract™, RNAqueous Micro Kit, Viral RNA Mini Kit, QiaAMP DNA Mini Kit) and automated magnetic bead extraction kits (NucliSENS EasyMAG and MagNA Pure 96 System using the DNA Bacterial/Viral small volume kit). The user is responsible for validating additional extraction and purification kits and platforms. |
