Preserving viruses, chlamydiae, mycoplasma, and ureaplasma in one formulation, the BD universal viral transport vial holds specimens at room or refrigerated temperature and works with the Directigen EZ Flu and RSV test kits.
Antibiotics suppress bacterial and fungal overgrowth, a phenol-red indicator confirms medium integrity, and the flat-bottomed conical tube resists spills on the bench. Scored swabs snap off cleanly, no scissors required.
