Molecular diagnostic techniques have changed markedly in recent years, moving away from traditional culture, immunoassay and biochemical tests and into more molecular analyses for identifying pathogens. In addition, recent developments in bacterial genomics and multiplexing reaction methods have changed the focus of sample preservation from the cellular to the molecular level. The AssayAssure line is a breakthrough preservative for maintaining valuable target components and revolutionizing the sample collection processes, including online use with “off the shelf” RNA and DNA extraction kits.
The Thermo Scientific AssayAssure line provides a sample collection technology that keeps pace with evolving analytical techniques and simplifies and enhances laboratory workflow.
