Ahlstrom-Munksjö BioSample cards are designed for micro- volume sampling, transport and ambient storage of biological samples. These cards are made of white and pure absorbent fibers and contain no wet-strength additives or chemicals. Thus, they ensure reproducible collection and minimize possible interferences for reliable analysis of targeted analytes like small molecules, proteins, nucleic acids or vitamines.
The cards with reference number 8.460.xxxx.A are CE marked in EU as In Vitro Diagnostic medical device in compliance with the Directive 98/79/EC. Drying racks are available to facilitate drying of the cards at ambient temperature.
