Frequently Asked Questions

The FTA Gene Card is designed for collection, transport, and long-term storage of DNA samples from sources like blood, buccal cells, plant material, and tissues. It simplifies workflows by allowing sample collection and preservation in a single step.

The card is treated with specialized chemicals that lyse cells, denature proteins, and protect nucleic acids from degradation. Once applied, DNA becomes immobilized within the matrix and can remain stable for years without refrigeration.

Each card includes three separate sample areas, with a capacity of approximately 75 µL per spot (225 µL total per card). This allows multiple samples or replicates to be collected on a single card for efficient processing.

Yes, DNA captured on the FTA matrix can be quickly processed by punching out a small disc, which can then be used directly in applications like PCR, genotyping, and sequencing with minimal preparation.

Absolutely. These cards enable safe, room-temperature transport of biological samples, eliminating the need for cold chain logistics. They also help inactivate pathogens, making them safer to handle and ship compared to liquid samples.
