Isohelix™ BuccalFix DNA Stabilization and Lysis Kits

Stabilizes DNA at room temperature maintaining integrity for downstream process applications.

Isohelix BuccalFix range of stabilizing buffers are designed to completely stabilize the DNA in samples from DNA buccal swabs by inhibiting all enzymatic and microbial activity that occurs following any buccal sampling.

The DNA is fully stabilized and, importantly, the structure and integrity of the DNA is fully maintained for further downstream processing applications.

Once stabilized, the DNA can be stored in the BuccalFix at room temperature for periods in excess of 2 years, and then easily be processed for DNA isolation by the addition of Proteinase K and subsequent isolation steps.

The BuccalFix buffers are offered in bulk, as well as pre-filled into various tube formats to suit both manual and more automated applications where 1D and 2D barcoding and auto de-cap options are valuable. 

• Stabilizes your DNA long-term
• Maintains DNA structural Integrity
• Improves DNA yields and purity
• Room temperature storage & transport
• Accommodates various swab designs
• Compatible with most DNA isolation kits

Tyvek Coveralls with Open Wrists & Ankles

Tyvek® 400 garments are composed of flash spun high density polyethylene which creates a unique, non-woven material available only from DuPont. Tyvek® 400 provides an ideal balance of protection, durability and comfort of any limited use fabric technology. Tyvek® 400 fabric offers an inherent barrier against particles (down to 1.0 micron in size). Protection is built into the fabric itself; there are no films or laminates to abrade or wear away. Tyvek® 400 fabric's durability advantage over microporous film fabrics delivers consistently better barrier, even after wear and abrasion. Applications include: lead and asbestos abatement/remediation, general maintenance/operations, spray painting, general clean-up.

• Comfort fit design based on extensive wearer input to provide our most comfortable garment design that: enables a greater range of movement while stretching and bending, provides a more tailored fit, offers reinforcement in high stress areas for fewer blowouts, utilizes a longer zipper for easier donning and doffing and an elastic waist to better position the garment.
• Laydown collar
• Open wrists
• Open ankles
• Stormflaps

Isohelix™ GeneFix™ Saliva Mini and Midi DNA Isolation Kits

The Isohelix™ GeneFix™ DNA kits use either mini or midi-formatted high-performance silica spin columns (specifically optimized) for the purification of DNA from Saliva. The isolated genomic DNA is highly purified with a typical A260/280 ratio above 1.8 and A260/230 above 1.0 with a high molecular DNA weight derived directly from the saliva DNA samples, most importantly showing minimum losses from the easy-to-use protocol.

The Mini format is especially useful when the Scientist wishes to isolate 0.5 mL to 1.0 mL aliquots of saliva stabilized from the GeneFix™ Saliva collector. The midi-format is used when the whole 2 mL of saliva needs to be isolated in a one-batch protocol. The DNA produced from both systems is suitable for use in the most demanding of downstream processing applications.

• High Purity Genomic DNA with Yields in excess of 100 µg
• Fully Optimized for Saliva samples
• DNA free from trace PCR inhibitors
• Designed for both Manual and HT Applications
• No Solvent-based chemicals required
• Ideal for the most demanding downstream Applications

Isohelix™ DNA/RNA Buccal Mouse Swabs

The MS-001, MS-002, MS-003, and MS-004 Mini DNA Isohelix™ Swabs use the same matrix material as the SK swabs so there is a significant history of use but have reduced dimensions and area. The width of the swab has been reduced from 8 mm to 6 mm. The swabs are Ethylene Oxide sterilized and are available in different swab numbers per wrapper; the break point has been reduced compared to the SK swab allowing it to be used in smaller tubes.

Mini Buccal Swabs are Available in individual packs of 1 & 2 Plus a 1 Swab Pack with 5 mL Tube Option

MS-01, MS-02 & MS-03 Are Easy To Use Buccal Swabs That Have Reduced Dimensions For Smaller Subjects 

• Ambient Storage – No Expensive Storage or Transport
• Easy To Handle & Quick To Use
• Available In Multiple Pack Sizes
• MS-01 Includes a 5ml Tube
• Smaller surface area size
• Very high pro rata DNA yields
• Fits smaller tubes so it can be 96-racked
• Lower break point to fit shorter tubes
• Uses identical swab material to SK series

PERFECT FOR VETERINARY USE

MS Swabs Are Ideally Suited For Veterinary Use Including Small Mammals & Fish

Isohelix™ Spin+Collect™ Devices

Spin+Collect™ is a novel sample recovery device to increase sample yields from swabs and other materials. The Isohelix™ Spin+Collect™ firmly grips the swab or other material whilst exposing maximal surface area for the first step of elution or lysis of the sample. A 1.5 mL microfuge tube is then fitted as a cap and inverted for centrifugation and final release of any sample trapped in the matrix.

• Yields increase over 25%
• Recover samples deeply embedded in the matrix
• Requires a single centrifuge step
• Disposable, sterile, and packaged aseptically
• Tested for Human DNA contamination
