    Highlights
    • User-friendly, spill-free design allows for safe, convenient collection of saliva/sputum samples. Ideal for at-home self collection applications.
    • Completely inactivates harmful pathogens at the point of collection, for worry-free transport and downstream analysis.
    • Stabilizes the DNA and RNA in a sample for transport/storage without the need for cold-chain.
    Description

    The DNA/RNA Shield SafeCollect Saliva Collection Kit is a user-friendly saliva collection kit for stabilizing the nucleic acid content of saliva and sputum samples.  DNA/RNA Shield completely inactivates harmful pathogens in the sample, and stabilizes the RNA in a sample for up to 30 days at room temperature. The SafeCollect design eliminates the risk of spilling the stabilization reagent during use, and is ideal for applications that require at-home self collection.

    Saliva/Sputum samples

    Refer to recommended purification kits

    The SafeCollect design seals the stabilizing reagent behind a pierceable safety seal. The tube prevents spillage or user contact during the use of the device, only releasing the reagent when the tube is capped.

    The SafeCollect devices are filled with DNA/RNA Shield, which is compatible with most commercially available DNA/RNA extraction/analysis workflows. DNA/RNA Shield is an Inactivating Transport Medium (ITM) and a recipient of a 510(k). For further information on product use, please refer to this link or contact Zymo Research's Technical Support Team.

    Avoid mixing the reagent and bleach (sodium hypochlorite) or other strong oxidizing agents and acids. Clean up any accidental spills with water first.

    This can happen on occasion due to transport or storage at lower temperatures. The reagent functionality is not affected; however, the precipitate can be resolved by heating the reagent to >37 °C.
