Isohelix™ launches Saliva Microbiome DNA Collectors

Isohelix™ launches Saliva Microbiome DNA Collectors

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.

Latest High Throughput Saliva DNA Isolation

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.

Isohelix™ Scores a Second Chinese CFDA Registration

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.
