IBI Saliva Collection Kit - Optimized for Epigenetic Studies
The IBI Saliva Collection Kit offers a simple, non-invasive, and cost-effective solution for collecting and preserving saliva samples for epigenetic and genetic research. Designed for easy use, the kit includes a funnel that attaches securely to a 10ml collection tube containing 2ml of saliva stabilization buffer. This buffer preserves DNA integrity, ensuring samples remain stable at room temperature for several days or refrigerated at +4°C for up to a month. The collection vial features a clear level indicator and a barcode for efficient tracking, making it ideal for high-throughput and automated liquid handling systems.
This kit simplifies the collection process, eliminates the need for invasive blood sampling, and supports downstream applications such as Behavioral Diagnostics, Inc.'s Smoke Signature™ Assay. With a typical DNA yield of 100 µg from a 5ml saliva specimen using a standard ethanol precipitation method, the DNA is optimized for comprehensive epigenetic analyses.
