Cost-effective and non-invasive method for capturing DNA samples
Easy to use funnel fits on to collection tube.
2ml saliva stabilization buffer to preserve integrity of DNA
Maintains DNA stability at room temperature for several days and stable at +4°C for up to a month
Standardized for high throughput processing and automated liquid handling
Typical DNA yields following IBI DNA Extraction Method = 100 µg
Optimized for use in either genetic or epigenetic analyses
Fully tested for use with Behavioral Diagnostic, Inc.’s Smoke Signature™ Assay
The IBI Saliva Collection Kit is designed to easily capture and store saliva samples deposited directly from patients. This saliva kit is optimized for use in epigenetic studies.
FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY
Kit includes funnel that easily attaches to the 10ml collection tube containing 2ml of saliva stabilization solution. The 10ml saliva collection vial carries a label clearly showing the level at which saliva needs to be deposited and also contains a bar code for easy tracking. This saliva collection kit is designed for use in high throughput automated liquid handling systems and is ideal for epigenetic studies and genetic studies.
Saliva samples are much more cost-effective to ship than blood samples; they can be shipped to a processing center via UPS or FedEx per applicable shipping regulations. (SeeUPS Biological SubstancesorFedEx - Packaging Guidelines for Clinical Samplesfor details.) The DNA in the saliva sample is stable at room temperature for several days, but suggested storage is at +4°C for up to a month until DNA extraction can be performed.
