The BD universal viral transport (UVT) system is designed to transport viruses, chlamydiae, mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas at room temperature. It is one of the only systems that may be stored and transported at 2°C to 25°C—all in one formulation.
No refrigeration requirements
The system does not require refrigerated storage or transport on ice, decreasing the risk of specimen rejection and eliminating messy specimen transport.
Reduced contamination
The system features a unique blend of antimicrobics that target and suppress bacterial and fungal contamination without harming viruses, chlamydiae, mycoplasmas or ureaplasmas.
Long-term storage
The system helps store samples for long periods by preserving viruses and chlamydiae when stored frozen with the presence of a cryoprotectant.
