Isohelix Spin+Collect™
Isohelix Spin+Collect™ is a novel sample recovery device to increase sample yields (over 25% more) from swabs and other materials. The Spin+Collect firmly grips the swab or other material whilst exposing maximal surface area for the first step of elution or lysis of the sample. A 1.5ml microfuge tube is then fitted as a cap and inverted for centrifugation and final release of any sample trapped in the matrix.
The Spin+Collect recovers sample deeply embedded in the matrix that only requires a single centrifuge step. It is disposable, sterile, packaged aseptically and have undergone stringent quality control to eliminate human DNA contamination.

Introducing
Saliva-Prep2 High Throughput DNA Isolation Kits
Isohelix has developed a new High Throughput Protocol for the rapid manual DNA Isolation of larger saliva volumes using common 96 deep well plates. Isohelix has seen an increasing number of enquiries from scientists wishing to isolate DNA in large numbers of high volume saliva samples, inexpensively and quickly without having to commit to expensive automated instrumentation.
The GeneFiX SalivaPrep2 isolation kit uses a unique and inexpensive chemistry, ideally suited for scaling to higher volume and DNA sample numbers without the losses for DNA Purity and Yields, yet has the added advantage of using centrifuges commonly found in most laboratories. The Saliva-Prep2 kit is flexible for any volume of sample. For support in optimizing for your unique needs, please contact us at enquiry@griffinbio.com
