COPAN NUCLEIC-CARD™: Next-Generation DNA Collection, Storage, and Processing Device :

COPAN NUCLEIC-CARD™ is a state-of-the-art solution for the efficient collection, transport, and long-term storage of human DNA from buccal cells, saliva, and blood. This chemically-treated matrix lyses cells and preserves DNA on a paper substrate, ensuring sample integrity for human identification, DNA databasing, and paternity testing. The compact, easy-to-use system supports direct PCR amplification workflows, providing a reliable method for DNA collection and preservation at room temperature.

Key Features :

  • Direct Amplification: Allows lysing treatment directly on the matrix for streamlined processes.
  • Long-Term Stability: Ensures sample stability for up to 30 years* at room temperature.
  • Degradation Prevention: Special formulation inactivates microorganisms, preserving DNA quality.
  • Forensic DNA Grade: Free from amplifiable human DNA, DNase, and RNase, and treated with EtO.
  • Automation Ready: Fully compatible with CPA200™, CPA300™, and other punching systems.
  • Optimized with FLOQSwabs®: Enables DNA extraction by cutting a portion of the padded FLOQSwabs®.

Workflow :

  • 1. Collect: Use the one-side padded FLOQSwab® for enhanced sample collection and release.
  • 2. Transfer: The protective holder ensures uniform and consistent sample deposition.
  • 3. Transport or Store: Securely transport or store the sample for further processing.
