Qiagen, 5100-1400IVD, digene HC2 Sample Conversion Kit

For the conversion of up to 200 specimens: Sample Conversion Buffer, Specimen Transport Medium, Denaturation Reagent, Indicator Dye

Features

- Designed for use with digene HC2 HPV DNA tests
- Specimens in PreservCyt media can be used to perform Pap and digene HC2 HPV DNA tests

Principle

The digene HC2 Sample Conversion Kit consists of the Sample Conversion Buffer, Specimen Transport Medium (STM), Denaturation Reagent, and Indicator Dye. The STM has an added preservative to retard bacterial growth and to retain the integrity of DNA. The STM is not intended to preserve viability of organisms or cells, and the specimens that are collected in STM cannot be used for culture or other testing methods.

The Sample Conversion Buffer, Denaturation Reagent, and STM are used to prepare cells for hybridization in digene HC2 DNA tests or storage.
