Use of FTA Gene Guard Filter Paper for the Storage and Transportation of Tumor Cells for Molecular Testing

1 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Efficient methods of storing tumor specimens for molecular testing are needed in the modern surgical pathology laboratory. The FTA Gene Guard system is a novel method for the collection and room temperature storage of blood samples for DNA testing. The method uses index card-sized filter papers that provide an ideal medium on which to store tumor specimens for DNA testing. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether...
