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 non-indicating cards for use with colored samples, such as blood.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Whatman WB120305 FTA Classic Card is used to collect, stabilize, and store biological samples such as blood, cells, or tissue for DNA analysis. The card contains a chemically treated matrix that captures nucleic acids and protects them from degradation during storage or transport.

A non-indicating FTA card does not contain a color-changing dye that signals sample application. These cards are typically used with colored samples such as blood, where the sample is already visible on the card surface.

Each WB120305 card includes four separate sample areas, allowing multiple samples or replicate tests to be collected and processed on a single card. Each area can be handled independently during DNA analysis workflows.

FTA technology works by lysing cells on contact, denaturing proteins, and binding DNA within the matrix fibers. This process stabilizes nucleic acids and protects them from contamination or degradation while allowing them to be processed later for PCR or other molecular analysis methods.

Yes. DNA captured on FTA cards can be stored at room temperature for long periods, eliminating the need for freezers or specialized cold-chain shipping. This makes the cards especially useful for field collection and remote sampling applications.
