Performance
Designed for molecular compatibility
UBM™ nucleic acid preservation has been confirmed by comparing immediate processing with 4‑week storage, using targets such as Influenza A, Adenovirus, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Escherichia coli. Performance, assessed against gold standards, demonstrated consistent or improved results. UBM™ is intended for use with compatible molecular techniques, and specimens must be extracted and purified according to laboratory procedures before amplification.
Microbial inactivation
For everyone’s safety
UBM™ has been validated for its ability to inactivate viruses, bacteria, fungi, and yeasts, ensuring safer specimen handling, processing, and transport. By effectively neutralizing these infectious agents, UBM™ minimizes biosafety hazards during transport and laboratory processing, while simultaneously preserving the integrity of nucleic acids for downstream molecular applications.
For safer and easier molecular sampling
Ready‑to‑use tube with preservation medium for nucleic acids. Used with compatible swabs such as FLOQSwabs® for transport from collection site to laboratory. Single use, IVDR professional use.
FLOQSwabs® compatible
Ensure a quick, capillarity-driven sample uptake and a
superior elution of the biological specimen, expanding
downstream diagnostic testing capabilities.
Non-toxic components
UBM™ does not contain toxic chemicals, ensuring safe use and reducing storage and shipping costs.
Stability and preservation
UBM™ stabilizes DNA and RNA from viruses, bacteria, fungi, and yeast for up to 28 days at 2–8 °C, 15–21 °C, and 33–37 °C. It is supplied in a ready-to-use, IVDR professional-use tube with a 12-month shelf life, ensuring neat storage and supply.
Automatable and molecular assay compatible
UBM™ has been validated with numerous molecular assays, and its tube is suitable for automatic specimen processors.
