certified free of RNase and DNase, sterility-tested water. To prevent loss of DNA and RNA in samples, it is essential to use ultrapure (type 1), nuclease-free water in applications such as PCR, cDNA synthesis, nucleic acid purification, sequencing, cloning and applications in molecular biology and (stem) cell culture.

Blue CollectTM is our CE-IVD marked device for straightforward and patient-friendly saliva collection for downstream laboratory analyses. Key features: Simple device to collect saliva, also for children (+5 years). Convenient design for self sampling. Easy visualisation of the required saliva volume due to transparent collector. Inert material: no inhibition of RT-qPCR. Ideal for large scale screening purposes. Only small volume of 1.3 ml of saliva needed. When used in conjunction with InActiv Blue® containing tubes, viscosity of saliva is greatly reduced.
