The PurSafe Plus® Collection and Transport System is engineered for the efficient collection, inactivation, and preservation of upper respiratory tract specimens suspected of containing SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype A (RSV-A).
Validated on the FDA-cleared Cepheid GeneXpert IV System, PurSafe Plus® delivers consistent performance for both point-of-care (POC) and high-throughput laboratory workflows, ensuring flexibility across clinical and diagnostic settings.
MK Preservative Buffer: Specially formulated to stabilize and protect DNA and RNA at both room and refrigerated temperatures. Maintains specimen integrity for up to 28 days.
Direct-Use Convenience: Requires no pretreatment or RNA isolation—samples can be used directly in the Cepheid GeneXpert IV System. Simplifies workflows and reduces hands-on processing time.
Available as media-only tubes or complete kits with HydraFlock® swabs in three configurations (large, ultrafine, mini tip) suitable for nasopharyngeal, nasal, and throat collection.
