Sample Collection Kits | DNA & RNA Collection and Stabilization
Overview:
Sample collection kits provide non-invasive, reliable, and high-quality collection of DNA and RNA from biological samples such as saliva, buccal cells, and nasal specimens.
These kits are designed as all-in-one systems for collection, stabilization, transport, and storage of nucleic acids at ambient temperature, eliminating the need for cold-chain logistics. They are widely used in genomics research, clinical diagnostics, biobanking, and population studies.
Features:
1. Non-Invasive Sample Collection
• Saliva-based or sponge/swab-based collection
• No need for blood draws (improves patient compliance)
• Suitable for:
o Adults
o Pediatrics
o Remote/home collection
2. Integrated Stabilization Technology
• Immediate stabilization of DNA/RNA upon collection
• Prevents degradation and microbial growth
• Samples remain stable at room temperature for extended periods
3. All-in-One Collection System
• Combines:
o Sample collection
o Stabilization buffer (released upon closure)
o Transport-ready tube
• Reduces handling steps and contamination risk
4. High Yield & Quality
• Saliva kits can generate high DNA yields (~100 µg from ~2 mL saliva)
• Produces DNA/RNA suitable for:
o PCR / qPCR
o NGS
o Genotyping / SNP arrays
o HLA typing
