Saliva Collection & Sample Stabilization

Saliva is considered to be an excellent alternative to swab methods for COVID-19 testing as it is faster, more scalable and less invasive. It also reduces exposure risk to healthcare workers compared to nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal collection and requires less PPE. 

GeneFix Saliva Collectors provide an efficient method for sample collection, stabilization and transport. Each device is pre-filled with a stabilization buffer that preserves high quality viral RNA for 5 days and DNA for 5+ years at room temperature. With the attached funnel, saliva is delivered directly into the buffer, and then the tube is sealed and ready for transport.
