Saliva DNA Collection and Isolation Kit

These kits include both the Genefix collection tubes with stabilization buffer and the full isolation kits.

GeneFix is a new easy to use DNA saliva collector that stabilizes DNA long term in 2ml saliva samples. The collection device is pre-filled and has a simple screw-on funnel for simple saliva delivery, directly into the non toxic stabilization buffer.

The GeneFix collection tube clearly indicates the volume of saliva required after which the funnel is removed and cap replaced. The unique funnel design prevents flow back, and the device is fully specified for sample transport and storage.

The Isohelix GeneFix Saliva-Prep Isolation kit is designed specifically for use with Saliva samples and uses a precipitation method to quickly and easily isolate the DNA up to 2ml volumes from the GeneFix Saliva DNA Collectors.

The GeneFix Saliva-Prep kit does not use solvents, columns or filtration and the reduced number of protocol steps make it extremely easy to use where a simple yet efficient isolation method is required.
