Provided herein are formulations and methods for the stabilization of one or more thrombocytes at ambient temperatures. Also provided are formulations and methods for the stabilization of one or more thrombocytes in an inactivated state in a blood sample at ambient temperatures. Further provided are articles of manufacture and kits and methods for substantially stable storage of one or more thrombocyte at ambient temperatures.

Stabilization of thrombocytes at ambient temperatures

Compositions and methods are disclosed for substantially liquid, gel, suspension, slurry, semisolid and/or colloid storage of biological samples following admixture with the herein disclosed storage composition, permitting substantial recovery of biological activity following storage without refrigeration. In certain embodiments, unfractionated blood or tissue samples may be stored without refrigeration for weeks, months or years in a form that permits recovery of intact DNA, RNA or protein components following the storage period.

Compositions for stabilizing DNA, RNA, and proteins in blood and other biological samples during shipping and storage at ambient temperatures

Described herein are stabilized polymerase compositions comprising a polymerase and an polymerase stabilizing agent, such as a non-detergent zwitterionic stabilizer or a cationic ester disclosed, for use in nucleic acid amplification or nucleic acid sequencing. Compositions are provided for the stabilization of one or more polymerases in a single stabilized liquid formulation. Also disclosed are methods for making and using stabilized polymerase compositions and kits for nucleic acid amplification and sequencing comprising the stabilized polymerase compositions provided.

Formulations and methods for stabilizing PCR reagents

Compositions and methods are disclosed for substantially liquid, gel, suspension, slurry, semisolid and/or colloid storage of biological samples following admixture with the herein disclosed storage composition, permitting substantial recovery of biological activity following storage without refrigeration. In certain embodiments, unfractionated blood or tissue samples may be stored without refrigeration in a form that permits recovery of intact DNA or RNA components following the storage period.
