Collection & Preservation of Saliva, Swabs and Stool - 2

Non-invasive collection of DNA samples The number of high-throughput studies in which DNA from many individuals is analysed is rapidly increasing. Non-invasive methods and techniques that allow self-collection are often preferred because they increase compliance rates and reduce costs. In addition, they can be used by untrained study participants, including children and the elderly. A major challenge for genetic testing and microbiome studies is the complexity of samples with a broad spectrum of bacteria and other microorganisms like fungi present in saliva or stool samples. Validated...

Stool samples With the Stool Collection Tubes Invitek Molecular offers a versatile tool for microbiome analysis. The product has already become popular with many studies for classical microbiome characterization of bacteria [1,2] and fungi [3], as well as in research on microbiome-associated diseases, nutrigenomics [4] and veterinary studies [5]. The main applications for Invitek Molecular stool products are qPCR, 16S rRNA sequencing or Shotgun Metagenomics. Optionally the product can be combined with a faeces catcher. Stool Collection Tubes with DNA Stabilizer Practical and accurate: rapid...

Long term stability of DNA in saliva samples Samples were collected with the SalivaGene Collector, stored at room temperature, and extracted with the PSP® Spin SalivaGene DNA Kit over a time period of up to 2 years. The PCR assay proofes the preservation of DNA in all saliva samples thoughout the long term study. Saliva was collected from 5 different human candidates with the Saliva Gene Collector. 500 µl of the preserved sample were extracted on day 1, after 6 months, 1 year and 2 years with the PSP® Spin SalivaGene DNA Kit. 2.5 µl of the isolated DNA were used for qPCR, specific for a...
