Norgen’s Urine Preservative is designed for the rapid preservation of DNA, RNA, microRNA and proteins from fresh urine samples. In addition, the Urine 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 Urine Preservative allow samples to be stored for over 2 years at room temperature with no detected degradation of urine DNA, RNA or proteins.
Norgen’s Urine Preservative is available in 2 convenient formats:
1. Urine Preservative Single Dose Ampules
With this product Norgen’s Urine Preservative is supplied in a liquid format in single dose ampules. The user simply collects 5 – 50 mL of urine into a urine collection container and adds the contents of the Urine Preservative Single Dose (Cat# 18126). The urine and preservative are then mixed, and the urine nucleic acids and proteins are preserved at room temperature.
2. Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes
Norgen’s Urine Preservative is also available in a dried format in Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes. The user simply collects urine into the tubes and mixes gently until the orange preservative pellet in the tube has dissolved. Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes are available in 3 convenient sizes:

MagPure A3 utilizes Magen’s solid-phase paramagnetic bead technology for high-throughput purification of PCR amplicons. AmPure utilizes an optimized buffer to selectively bind PCR amplicons 100bp and larger to paramagnetic beads. Excess primes, nucleotides, salts and enzymes can be removed using a simple washing procedure. The resulting purified PCR product is essentially free of contaminants.

Storage and Stability
MagPure A3 should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival and is stable up to 18 months under the condition. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect its performance. Shake the reagent well before use. It should appear homogenous and consistent in color.DO NOT FREEZE.
