Description
HID-CARD™ is an easy-to-use system for collection, preservation, and long-term storage of nucleic acids at room temperature. The HID-CARD™ matrix is chemically-treated to enable cell lysis and protein denaturation. Nucleic acids are immobilized and preserved for long-term storage at room temperature. HID-CARD™ collection devices are available in one-, two-, and four-spot formats. They are manufactured by Copan, a market leader in the area of sample collection tools, and distributed by Agoliolab.
Key Features:
• Enables direct PCR amplification from a card punch, eliminating extraction steps
• Facilitates high quality STR profiles with Applied Biosystems direct PCR amplification kits
• Certified free of DNase, Rnase, and amplifiable human DNA
• Prevents growth of microorganisms, enabling long-term room temperature storage
• Easily automated with commercially-available punching systems to minimize manual handling and maximize sample integrity
