Swab & Saliva Sample Collection
RNA Collection & Preservation from Swab or Saliva Samples
Swab & Saliva Sample Collection
The Mirxes Swab Collection System and Mirxes Saliva Collection Kit allow collection and preservation of RNA from potentially viral-infected nasal/throat swabs or saliva samples, respectively.
Swab Collection System
The Mirxes Swab Collection System allows collection of potentially viral-infected throat or nasal swabs in a guanidine solution that lyses and denatures viruses, allowing for safe storage and handling for up to two weeks at room temperature.
Lysed extract is compatible with widely available spin column- and magnetic bead-based RNA extraction kits.
Saliva Collection Kit
The Mirxes Saliva Collection Kit allows collection of RNA from potentially viral-infected saliva samples. With simple collection procedures and minimal facilitation by administrators, the Mirxes Saliva Collection Kit can be widely used in healthcare and research institutions.
- Transport, use and store (unused kits are valid for up to 24 month) stably at room temperature.
- RNA samples are stable for up to 15 days. Samples should be in virus transport medium (VTM) and stored at room temperature.
- Pre-analytic procedures to test for common pathogens e.g. coronavirus, influenza virus, hand-foot-and-mouth disease.
- Compatible with commonly available spin column-based and magnetic bead-based kits.
