Description

Collect, stabilize, process, transport, and archive buccal DNA samples with Whatman Indicating FTA Classic Cards. Whatman FTA technology consists of two distinct chemistries, both of which have the ability to lyse cells on contact, denature proteins, and protect D from degradation. FTA chemistry contains chemical denaturants and a free radical scavenger. With FTA, the D remains tightly bound while proteins and inhibitors are washed from the matrix. There are three options for D analysis with FTA cards: direct amplification, standard amplification with rinsing (punch-in method), and extraction of D from the card.

FTA cards are available as indicating cards for use with clear samples, such as buccal cells or saliva. The cards include a pink indicating dye that turns to white when a clear sample is applied.

Features:
Improves process efficiency by enabling direct amplification for STR analysis.
Ideal for colored samples, like blood.
Immediate stabilization and protection of nucleic acids due to FTA technology.
Different card options to support manual or automated processing for fast and efficient sampling.
Long term archiving of samples at room temperature due to FTA card technology.
Common Applications:
Forensics
Transgenic identification
Transfusion medicine/HLA typing
Plasmid screening
Food and agriculture testing
Drug discovery
Genomics
STR analysis
Animal identification
Whole genome amplification
Molecular biology

Frequently Asked Questions

This card is designed for the collection, stabilization, transport, and long-term storage of nucleic acids from biological samples. FTA technology lyses cells on contact and protects DNA within the matrix, allowing reliable downstream analysis such as PCR and STR testing.

The indicating version contains a pink dye that turns white when a clear sample (such as buccal cells or saliva) is applied. This visual confirmation helps users verify proper sample placement and reduces handling errors.

Each WB120206 card includes four separate sample areas, allowing multiple specimens to be collected or processed independently on a single card. This design improves workflow efficiency in laboratories and field studies.

Yes. One major advantage of FTA technology is that nucleic acids are stabilized in the matrix and can be archived at room temperature for extended periods, eliminating the need for cold storage during transport or storage.

These cards are suitable for a wide range of biological materials, including buccal cells, blood, cultured cells, plant tissue, and microorganisms. They are widely used in forensics, genomics, agriculture, and molecular biology workflows.
