We are very excited to welcome Nina to the team at Isohelix. Nina brings a wealth of experience in life science sampling and customer focus, and will be working face to face with our customers in the UK and Europe, helping them to find the best solution to their DNA sampling workflows through our innovative sample collection, stabilisation and purification products.
We welcome Ann Harrison who is an experienced ISO and IVD Scientist, and will elevate on our current ISO and IVD compliant production processes, complementing the rapidly expanding range of products being manufactured at our facilities in Harrietsham UK. Ann has previously worked in various Pharmaceutical and Clinical GMP environments and we look forward to her specialist skills being utilized within our growing Isohelix team.
Our new addition to the GeneFiX family, the Saliva Microbiome collectors stabilise bacterial DNA for at least 1 year at room temperature, removing the need for cold storage and complex cold chain logistics.
Instant stabilization, free from any human or bacterial DNA contamination, they provide a snapshot of the saliva microbiome at the moment of collection and are safe for at-home testing when the sample timing can be critical.
Isohelix has developed a new DNA Isolation kit for automated magnetic bead applications. Our development team have recorded great results, and would now like to confirm the performance of the new kit in real world applications.
If you would like to Beta test these kits, please contact
The GeneFixTM Collectors are pre-filled with high specification Non Toxic Buffer and uses our Design-patented funnel for spill free use.
Isohelix has developed a new High Throughput Protocol for the rapid manual DNA Isolation of larger saliva volumes using common 96 deep well plates.
Isohelix has seen an increasing number of enquiries from scientists wishing to isolate DNA in large numbers of high volume saliva samples, inexpensively and quickly without having to commit to expensive automated instrumentation.
The GeneFixTM SalivaPrep2 isolation kit uses a unique and inexpensive chemistry, ideally suited for scaling to higher volume and DNA sample numbers without the losses for DNA Purity and Yields, yet has the added advantage of using centrifuges commonly found in most laboratories.
The registration process included rigorous and exhaustive checks, covering risk analysis, manufacturing specifications, technical product performance and quality control processes.
Tom Hole, CEO of Isohelix comments that “Isohelix has been well established in the marketplace for some time, and the registration of both of these key product lines supports the quality of our product design, manufacture and ongoing development.”
Isohelix manufactures DNA and RNA Collection devices for Saliva and Buccal Cells, together with kits for stabilization and extraction of high purity DNA for research and medical purposes.
Isohelix’s GeneFiX HT collection devices are now integrated with FluidX tubes. 1 and 2d Bar Codes and Auto De-Cap options available.
