Product information

For sampling and sample preparation we have introduced our new product line: Sampletype.

Sampletype i-sep^® spin columns, incubation and separation in the same device, allow sample lysis directly in the column and consecutively the lysis buffers are quantitatively transferred with no extra handling steps. The products are guaranteed free of DNA. DNA free means: DNA of any kind, that might be present, is – by means of treatment with ethylene oxide – degraded to such small fragments that no human profile can be generated with PCR amplification methods Manufacturing and production of our Sampletype products according to the “New standards for the production process of comsumables and reagents for the forensic DNA-analysis and evidence collection“ of the German Federal Criminal Police office. Production and treatment with ethylene oxide are accredited.

Stepwise lysis and separation in the same device without extra pipetting steps
Closed system that minimizes the risk of cross-contaminations and mix-ups
No manual transfer of the substrate
Quantitative recovery of lysate
Improved process flow
No pellet recovery
Reduced risk of contamination
Compatible to any consecutive DNA isolation, both manual and automated

Sampletype i-sep^® SQ

proprietary sealed filter material which allows the release (Lysis) and separation of DNA in one system
Lysis conditions up to 95°C
DNA extraction procedures involving lysis of forensic samples such as swabs or clinical samples to extract DNA from tissue
