Anaerobe Systems’ transport tubes are sterilized, poured, and packaged under anaerobic conditions (PRAS media). Our unique process prevents oxygen contamination or damage to the culture media during the manufacturing process. Reducing agents and visual oxygen indicators help prevent oxidation when adding a sample, and will indicate the portion of the medium still anaerobic.
BIOME-Preserve is a patent pending, first of its kind kit for collecting, transporting, and preserving anaerobic microbiome samples such as stool. It allows for easy self collection of a sample at home, room temperature transport for up to 5 days, and culture recovery of the majority of species present in the sample. BIOME-Preserve may also be directly frozen for long term storage. BIOME-Preserve is for research use only and has not been evaluated by the FDA for use in diagnosis or treatment of any disease in a clinical setting.
