For in vitro diagnostic use. For collection of human DNA. Oragene•Dx has been cleared for in vitro diagnostic use in the U.S.A.
† FDA cleared for in vitro diagnostic use for direct-to-consumer applications, K192920.
* Based upon results derived from The Oragene®•Dx DTC User Comprehension Study, K192920.
The Oragene®•Dx DTC User Comprehension Study, K192920 was conducted to support a 510(k) submission to FDA. The study was conducted to assess the acceptability of saliva samples collected with the Oragene®•Dx device for a typical direct-to-consumer application. The study demonstrated that customers comprehended the instructions for use provided with the Oragene•Dx device and could successfully provide a saliva sample at home with acceptable quality for use in genotyping.

This is a truly great product. I have tried many different chemistries to obtain DNA… and I have not seen a better compromise for yield, purity, time to extract and ease of collection than Oragene.
