DNA/RNA Shield Transport and Preservation Medium,
Collection Tubes for Fecal, Saliva, Blood and Swab Samples
DNA/RNA Shield is a DNA and RNA transport and storage medium for any biological sample. DNA/RNA Shield preserves the genetic integrity and expression profiles of samples at ambient temperatures (no refrigeration or freezing needed) and completely inactivates infectious agents (viruses, bacteria, fungi, & parasites).
Nucleic acid from samples stored in this DNA and RNA transport and storage medium can be isolated directly without precipitation or reagent removal (compatible with most DNA and RNA purification kits).

Zymo Research Sample Collection Recommendation Chart
Blood Collection
Sample Collection Kits and Devices
Blood collection tubes and kits for the collection and safe room temperature storage of blood samples. Kits allow for simple preparation and isolation. corresponding plasma, serum and whole blood kits allow for simple, reliable, and efficient preparation and isolation.
Urine Collection
Sample Collection Kits and Devices
Urine collection kits for the collection and stabilization of urine samples. Kits include conditioning buffer for the stabilization of cell-free DNA and RNA in urine during sample transport or storage. Urine collection cups and buffer can be purchased individually or as part of a complete kit.
Tissue Collection
Sample Collection Devices and Tubes
Tissue specimen tubes and reagent for the collection and stabilization of tissue specimens. Tubes are pre-filled with Shield reagent, ensuring that the nucleic acid integrity of the tissue remains unchanged. Tubes with bashing beads are ideal for breaking up tough-to-lyse tissue specimens for molecular analysis.
Environmental/Vector Collection
Sample Collection Devices and Tubes
Environmental specimen collection and vector research tubes for collection and stabilization of environmental samples including insects, tissues, etc. The tubes are pre-filled with DNA/RNA Shield and a matrix tailored for tough-to-lyse sample inputs from tissue to microbial samples.
