Join us at ESHG 2020.2 Virtual conference and visit the poster of our scientist Dr. Christhanthi Lowe to learn more about Extraction of genomic DNA from stabilized saliva using selected QIAGEN purification systems.
Saliva is increasingly used as a noninvasive alternative to blood for the examination of human DNA in ancestry testing or disease monitoring. Sample collection does not require trained professionals or dedicated facilities.
The preanalytical workflow should minimize DNA degradation and fragmentation. Our here shown study demonstrates the compatibility of QIAGEN gDNA sample preparation kits with different saliva collection devices, as part of a workflow for extraction of high-quality, intact salivary gDNA.
