The ability to transport samples at room temperature without compromising their integrity is a major advantage, especially in remote areas where refrigeration and specialized transport facilities are unavailable. This feature can help extend diagnostic services to underserved populations, facilitating earlier detection and treatment of TB cases.

Furthermore, the TBSend Card’s support for advanced molecular diagnostics, including whole genome amplification, makes it a powerful tool in the fight against drug-resistant TB. By enabling more sensitive and accurate testing, the device can help guide appropriate treatment regimens and prevent the spread of resistant strains.
