This kit provides a fast and simple spin column procedure for isolating genomic DNA from saliva samples collected and preserved using Norgen’s Saliva DNA Collection and Preservation Devices (Cat. RU49000), as well as fresh saliva samples.
Saliva DNA purified using Norgen’s kit is of the highest quality, and is compatible with a number of downstream research applications including PCR, Southern Blot analysis, sequencing and microarray analysis.
Saliva represents an excellent non-invasive alternative to blood collection. Human genomic DNA extracted from buccal epithelial cells and white blood cells found in saliva can be used in various applications in diagnostics. Saliva DNA can be used for the detection of biomarkers to diagnose a disease, follow the diseases progress or monitor the effects of a particular treatment. Saliva DNA can also be used to diagnose particular types of infections. Isolation of DNA from saliva has become an attractive alternative to isolation from blood or tissue due to the fact that sample collection is non-invasive, the samples can be collected by individuals with little training, and no special equipment is required. Norgen’s Saliva DNA Isolation Kit provides a fast and simple procedure for isolating genomic DNA from both preserved saliva samples and fresh saliva samples.

Toxoplasma gondii is a single-celled organism which causes Toxoplasmosis, the most common parasitic infection worldwide affecting animals as well as humans. Cats are the only animal in which sexual reproduction of the organism occurs, and for this reason cats are the only domestic animal which has the potential to shed T. gondii eggs. When disease does occur, it may develop following primary infection due to an inadequate immune response to stop the invasive tachyzoites or as a result of a reactivated infection due to a compromised immune system. The most common symptoms of the disease are anorexia, weight loss, lethargy, dyspnea, ocular symptoms and pyrexia. As toxoplasmosis can be transmitted to humans it represents a serious health risk for people living in close contact with infected animals. Infection is especially dangerous for people with suppressed immune systems and cancer patients as well as pregnant women.

Storage Conditions
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.
