How can wastewater predict the future?
In healthcare, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a constantly growing issue – but it’s not a new one. For several years, scientists have cautioned…
Read More PrimeStore® MTM
PrimeStore MTM is designed to rapidly inactivate viruses (including Influenza), bacteria (including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, MTB) and veterinary pathogens (ASFv, CSFv, FMDv, HPAI, and NDv) at point-of-collection and stabilize DNA and RNA during storage and shipping. Samples can be collected, shipped and processed without prior inactivation and at ambient temperature.
Product Description
PrimeStore MTM is a cost-effective and safe option for the collection and transport of infectious disease samples for point-of-care and reference laboratories doing nucleic acid-based testing. It is formulated to:
- Rapidly inactivate potentially pathogenic microorganisms for safe sample handling.
- Preserve and stabilize nucleic acids (DNA, RNA, mRNA) at ambient temperatures.
- Be used with various nucleic acid extraction processes, point-of-care and syndromic testing platforms.
FDA Cleared Class II. For use in diagnostic procedures.

*FDA Clearance for respiratory samples of Influenza A (RNA) and/or sputum samples suspected of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DNA)
Features
- One solution for multiple sample types including blood/plasma/serum, body fluids (urine, sputum, saliva), swabs (oral, throat, nasal, nasopharyngeal, buccal) and more *
- Preserves sample-derived DNA, RNA and mRNA during extended ambient temperature storage
- Compatible with most nucleic acid extraction methods and high-throughput systems
Benefits
- Rapid and consistent inactivation of pathogens means no requirement for BSL-2 facilities
- Extended sample stability eliminates the need for immediate processing
- Room temperature storage reduces costs and complications associated with cold chain shipping
