bis-PEG23-endo-BCN

Overview

• Collect from nasal, buccal, saliva, fecal, skin, surfaces, and more
• Completely stabilize microbiota profiles from the point-of-collection
• Minimize bias in data analysis: NGS (Metagenomics/Microbiome), PCR and microarrays
• No need to immediately process samples: ship and store at ambient temperatures
• DNA preservation at room temperature over 2 years
• Renders sample non-infectious for safe and easy shipping
• Compatible with DNA isolation kits and protocols: Optimized isolation procedure using Norgen’s Microbiome DNA Isolation Kit

Norgen’s Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System is designed for collection, ambient storage and transport of DNA from samples collected using a swab, including nasal, buccal, saliva, fecal, skin, surfaces, etc. The Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System contains Norgen’s Swab Preservative in a liquid format. The user simply collects the specimen using the provided swab, and then transfers the swab into the Swab Preservative. The Swab Preservative prevents the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and fungi, and also inactivates viruses allowing the resulting non-infectious samples to be handled and shipped safely. In addition, the Swab Preservative eliminates the need to immediately process or freeze samples and allows the samples to be shipped to centralized testing facilities at ambient temperatures. The components of the Swab Preservative allow DNA samples to be stored at room temperature for over 2 years.

DNA Isolation from Preservative

Swab samples collected and preserved using Norgen’s Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System are compatible with most DNA isolation methods. Samples stored in the tubes have been used successfully with most of Norgen Biotek’s DNA isolation kits and reagents. An optimized isolation procedure is available as part of Norgen’s Microbiome DNA Isolation Kit (Cat. 64100).

Propargyl-PEG5-amine is a propargyl linker that is commonly used as a Click Chemistry reagent for copper-catalyzed reactions with azides. The amine moiety reacts with carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters and other carbonyl compounds. The PEG spacer helps improve the water solubility of the molecule in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
