The BuccalFix Buffer, 25 mL is designed to completely stabilize the DNA in samples from DNA buccal swabs by inhibiting all enzymatic and microbial activity that occurs following any buccal sampling.

The DNA is fully stabilized with the structure and integrity of the DNA being fully maintained for further downstream processing applications. Once stabilized the DNA can be stored in the BuccalFix at Room Temperature for periods in excess of 2 years, and then can be easily processed for DNA isolation by the addition of Proteinase K and subsequent isolation steps.

This BuccalFix buffers is offered in bulk. It is also available pre-filled into various tube formats to suit both manual and more automated applications where 1D and 2D bar coding, and auto de-cap options are valuable. Additionally, the new MS mini swabs will fit into the smaller tubes where 96 tube racking is crucial.

Features:

• Stabilizes your DNA long term
• Maintains DNA structural integrity
• Improves DNA yields and purity
• Room temperature storage
• Choice of collection tubes– Manual/HT
• Accommodates various swabs designs
• Compatible with most DNA isolation kits
