DNA storage at room temperature
Thursday, 26 April, 2007
Introducing a new era in DNA storage: the SampleGard System is a 96-well plate or individual microtube filled with Biomatrica's proprietary SampleMatrix.
This matrix is a novel, polymer-based, dry storage medium that stabilises DNA at room temperature - ideal for storage or transport of plasmid and genomic DNA.
Simply add your liquid sample to the well or tube and the polymer forms a protective seal around the sample as it dries.
SampleGard provides superior, rapid DNA recovery after years of storage - just add water.
After re-hydration the DNA is assay ready (PCR, transfection, sequencing etc), and no further purification is required.
