Oragene•DNA is ideal for any genetic researchers that are looking for methods to increase donor compliance and cut overall study costs. Learn more about how Oragene•DNA supports your processes and analysis by exploring the following technical documents. This section is designed to reflect the various stages that researchers must consider in planning and executing their studies.

Click on any of the areas below to learn more about how Oragene•DNA will integrate seamlessly into your existing workflow.

Sample Collection
Oragene•DNA is the best way to collect high-quality DNA. Learn more about DNA yield with Oragene•DNA, donor user instructions, how to maximize DNA yield and how to ship biological samples with Oragene•DNA.

Storage
Oragene•DNA provides the ultimate in stability and flexibility because Oragene•DNA/saliva samples remain stable for years at room temperature. Eliminate shipping costs and logistic complexity by sending samples through regular mail. Learn more about DNA stability in Oragene•DNA.

Purification
DNA purification starts as soon as a donor closes the collection vial and their saliva is mixed with the Oragene•DNA solution. Oragene•DNA is fully compatible with high-throughput automated extraction robots. Learn more about Oragene•DNA integration with automated systems.

Downstream Applications
DNA extracted from Oragene•DNA is of a high-molecular weight and of good quality, making it ideal for all stringent downstream applications. Learn more about Oragene•DNA's use in applications such as PCR, Sequencing and Whole Genome Amplification.

 

"The collection protocol is very convenient, the extraction is very quick and simple, and the yield is great. Our downstream applications include PCR, restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing.

We have collected numerous family members who were not willing to go for a blood draw, as well as children, elderly patients and overseas relatives. The ease of shipping and self-collection are remarkable. Our lab is very impressed with this timely product."
