FTA Elute Micro Card

Whatman Non-Indicating FTA Elute Micro Cards enable you to collect, process, transport, and store colored biological samples, such as blood samples.

• 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.

FTA Elute Cards

Whatman FTA technology consists of two distinct chemistries, both of which have the ability to lyse cells on contact, denature proteins, and protect DNA from degradation. FTA Elute contains a chaotropic salt. With FTA Elute, proteins remain tightly bound while DNA is eluted from the matrix. With FTA Elute, eluted DNA can be used for STR analysis (standard amplification), sequencing, and real-time PCR applications.

FTA Elute cards are available as non-indicating cards for use with colored samples, such as blood.
