OMNIgene•ORAL | OM-501
Collect superior samples for molecular detection of microbial DNA.
Microarrays and Next Generation Sequencing give researchers the ability to easily detect and quantitate molecular targets in a highly multiplexed fashion. Due to the complex nature of samples required for metagenomic research of the microbiome, bias can be easily introduced through improper sample collection, stabilization and transport.

OMNIgene•ORAL is for research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Full terms and conditions for all DNA Genotek products are available here.
DNA Genotek's sample collection devices and nucleic acid stabilization chemistries are protected by issued and pending patents in numerous countries around the world.
By using HOMIM (Human Oral Microbe Identification Microarray), we demonstrated that saliva samples stored in OMNIgene•ORAL were indeed stabilized for at least 3 weeks, even at 37° Celsius. This is outstanding! Consequently, I think OMNIgene•ORAL would be very useful for remote collections alleviating the need for a -80° freezer or, for that matter, any refrigeration to preserve samples. This is an incredible benefit for any investigator who is interested in preserving precious clinical samples, especially for use with molecular analyses of genomic material.
