The preservation of nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) makes the most sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic techniques possible

The correct handling of biological samples in the pre-analytical phase has a significant influence on the diagnostic process. Because they are sensitive materials, among other things, the risk of contamination can easily make analysis impossible. The stages of correct collection, storage and transportation make up the logistics chain that laboratories cannot avoid.

KolplaGene, offered as a kit with a swab, allows collection in any environment, whether home, hospital or even a corporate environment, simply by impregnating the swab with material to be analyzed, whether from the oral mucosa, wounds, secretions in general or surfaces.

Kolplagene prevents microbiological contamination and inactivates DNAses and RNAses, preventing complete or partial degradation of the nucleotide chain (DNA/RNA) for up to 30 days at room temperature. It also makes it possible to overcome the geographical obstacles of great distances and lack of resources, as is common in developing countries of Brazil’s size.

These are classic indications, based on the KolplaGene solution:

• PCR tests: STIs, Genotyping, Paternity Testing, Forensic Applications, Respiratory Panel, Species Identification.
• Genetic Sequencing Tests (NGS): Genomic Panel, Oncology, Pharmacogenetics, Nutrigenetics, Microbiota. Chromosomal alterations, environmental monitoring, ancestry and fertility analysis.
• Genomic microarray tests (
  SNP-array
  )
• Other tests that require
  DNA/RNA mapping
