An all-in-one solution for sampling from the oral cavity
The MicroCollect™ Sample Collection and Preservation Devices are designed for microorganism or oral cells collection and preservation from the oral cavity. Flocked swabs use innovative nylon fiber technology to provide excellent sample collection and release. Nylon fiber swabs allow a better collection of laboratory samples and the subsequent immediate release into the rinse solution. After putting the collected sample into the rinse solution, the nucleic acid of the sample is preserved in solution.
This product provides an easy way for people without professional medical assistance to collect samples independently at home or other places. This product is safe, reliable, easy to use, and can be widely used in hospital, family, and research institutes, etc. MicroCollect™ Sterile Pack Swabs are able to preserve a large percentage of sample collected from the oral cavity. Recovered DNA or RNA can be used in many molecular biological experiments including, PCR, genomics, epigenomics, metagenomics, etc.
