TransFix® will preserve and stabilise samples for up to 10 days until flow cytometry can be performed enabling treated samples to be stored or transported safely.
Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry is an established diagnostic procedure used to analyse lymphocytes in blood, CSF and other body fluids. Situations often arise where samples cannot be analysed immediately follwowing collection. This often occurs when samples are taken during evenings and weekends or where samples must be transported to the laboratory. TransFix® will preserve and stabilise samples for up to 10 days until flow cytometry can be performed enabling treated samples to be stored or transported safely.
TransFix® can be used to extend the viability of blood samples for up to 10 days when stored at 4°C. Research has also demonstrated (Bergeron et al) that blood samples treated with TransFix® are also stable when stored between 20°C to 24°C for up to 7 days and at 37°C for up to 3 days. Transportation of samples between clinical sites often raises concerns about sample integrity. TransFix® can be used in resource poor areas of the world to extend sample viability without refrigeration and enable samples to be batched and transported for examination. (Jani et al, 2001).
