collect - release - transport in same tube





The iSWAB-DNA device allows for the collection and stabilization of DNA at the point of collection without the need for swab inclusion.


Typical yields of between 10-30μg (iSWAB-DNA-1200) of DNA with less than 1% bacterial contamination can be achieved.


The gentle collection and lysis chemistry of the alcohol-free iSWAB buffer allows for recovery of double-stranded, large fragment DNA similar to the genomic DNA generated from blood, making it suitable for complex genomics downstream arrays such as microarrays and Next Generation Sequencing.


Other non-invasive collection methods often utilize alcohol and can produce short DNA fragments limiting their usability to basic genotyping applications.


Applications include: Genetic Analysis: Epigenetics, Epidemiology, and Forensics. Veterinary Testing: Genotyping, Breeding, Speciation



iSWAB microbiome el kit





Mawi DNA Technologies has developed a modified “extraction-less” version of the iSWAB technology. The ISWAB-Microbiome-EL is designed to eliminate the RNA extraction step in the COVID-19 Molecular testing workflow, allowing researchers to perform direct RT-PCR on individual and pooled samples.

  • non-toxic stabilizing technology that enables the inactivation of bacteria, fungi, spores, and viruses, allows ambient collection and transport of various biosamples, and maintains the status quo at the time of collection.
  • compatible and can stabilize both nasal swabs and saliva samples
  • samples can be used directly in PCR reactions without any prior major (RNA extraction) or minor (heating or/and Proteinase K treatment) sample processing and successfully detect SARS-CoV-2 without any observed PCR inhibition.
  • inactivates SARS-CoV-2 for safe collection and storage


iswab dna collection kit





iSWAB-Discovery is a DNA collection kit for humans or animals that can capture samples producing robust yields of double stranded, long fragmented DNA from buccal cells using traditional swabs. iSWAB-DSC is essentially identical to iSWAB-DNA but requires only a single swab and is more cost effective and yields less DNA.



iSwab microbiome collection kit





Microbial content and diversity within collected gut, rectal, vaginal, skin, oral, or soil samples can provide a wealth of clues about human and animal health.


Current microbiome collection methods subject the samples to harsh and stressful stabilization techniques such as freezing or harsh organic solvents. Both stabilization approaches have a high probability of altering the microbial representation in the sample, which could lead to misleading results and hinder proper modeling or data analysis.


  • non-toxic stabilization
  • microbial presentation remains intact from time of collection for weeks
  • no bloom effect for microbiome data
  • ambient temperature transport and storage , no cold chain required
  • DNA and RNA from collected microorganisms remains stable at room temperature for up to 40 days for DNA, and 21 days for RNA, eliminating the need for expedited cold chain transport.
  • inactivates bacteria, fungi, spore and viruses for safe sample transport
  • purified DNA and RNA form samples are compatible with qPCR, microarray, NGS application
  • Stabilizes 20g of fecal or soil material in standard containers
