Product catalog summary
Microbiome Sample Management
This document outlines the procedures and products offered by Invitek Molecular for the collection, stabilization, and extraction of DNA from gut microbiome samples. The focus is on maintaining sample integrity for microbiome profiling studies.
Sample Collection and Stabilization
  • Pre-filled collection tubes with DNA stabilizer allow for easy self-collection of high-quality samples.
  • Samples can be homogenized and stabilized at the point of collection, allowing for ambient temperature storage and transport for up to three months, eliminating the need for temperature-controlled shipping.
  • Product offerings include Stool DNA Stabilizer and Stool Collection Tubes with DNA Stabilizer, available in various package sizes.
DNA Extraction Kits
  • Designed to remove PCR inhibitors and isolate DNA from microorganisms and host organisms.
  • Suitable for various applications including 16S rRNA Microbiome profiling, Shotgun Metagenomic Sequencing, qPCR, and arrays.
  • Features InviAdsorb matrix for efficient inhibitor removal and Proteinase K digestion for high yields from Gram-positive bacteria.
  • Different lysis conditions allow for the adjustment of bacterial DNA content in the total DNA extracted.
Product Specifications
  • PSP® Spin Stool DNA Basic Kit and InviMag® Stool DNA Kit/KF96 are available for manual and automated DNA extraction, respectively.
  • Compliance with EU Directive 98/79/EC on in vitro medical devices is noted, with a disclaimer for regions where this directive is not recognized.

Microbiome sample management-4

Fast and convenient handling The kits contain the InviAdsorb matrix in order to remove all effective inhibitors very efficiently. After a rigorous pre-lysis step using Zirconia Beads with optimized pre-lysis buffer at high temperatures, the sample is pre-incubated with InviAdsorb to remove PCR inhibitors. Proteinase K digestion ensures high yields also from Gram-positive bacteria. Stool samples contain a range of DNA e.g. host DNA from colon epithelial cells, parasite DNA, bacterial DNA, DNA from food or DNA from gastrointestinal pathogens. The choice of different lysis conditions enables the...
