Description
PURPOSE
NOVAPREP HQ + Grey Vial are special empty hermetically sealed containers with built-in polypropylene filter. They are intended for storage and transportation of non-gynecological biomaterial collected by puncture (fine-needle aspiration). The unique design of the vial allows aliquoting without opening the cap of the vial, which makes it possible to use the biological material in the vial for additional studies (PCR, immunocytochemistry, etc.). We recommend to use the vial in a combination with NOVAPREP HQ + Preservative Solution as a medium for cell transport and storage.
BENEFITS
- the needle penetrates the vial cap without breaking it;
- no risk of loss of biological material;
- built-in filter to minimize blood and mucus in the cell sample;
- a possibility to perform additional tests from the same vial (PCR, immunocytochemistry);
- vial storage up to 45 days for liquid cytology and up to 90 days for molecular studies at room temperature.
