DNA Genotek Inc.

DNA Genotek Inc. With the launch of its flagship product Oragene® in 2004, DNA Genotek revolutionized the DNA sample collection market.

DNA Genotek, a subsidiary of OraSure Technologies, Inc., is a leading provider of products for biological sample collection, stabilization and preparation, including Oragene®•DNA. DNA Genotek, a subsidiary of OraSure Technologies, Inc., set out to discover how to optimize DNA sample collection and meet an emerging demand for non-invasive collection methods. Through innovative research and developm

ent, we discovered a powerful chemistry that could stabilize DNA from saliva. For the first time, the industry would have a mechanism to collect large amounts of high quality DNA through non-invasive sampling as an alternative to blood samples. Our products allow donors to simply spit into a plastic tube in order to provide a reliable, high quality DNA sample in an easy and cost effective way. Since its launch, Oragene has become the product of choice for customers in major academic institutions, hospitals and for diagnostic testing companies worldwide. In 2010, DNA Genotek launched Performagene™, a non-invasive method for collecting DNA from livestock and companion animals. To date in 2011, the company released three new products: ORAcollect® prepIT® and OMNIgene®•DISCOVER. Oragene•DNA is not available for sale in the United States. Not all products are available in all regions.

New on the Genetic Link! Why collect blood when saliva does the job? 4 examples of why saliva is a better source of DNA for genetic analysis. Saliva collection provides a non-invasive alternative source of genomic DNA for use in genetic analysis and is as reliable as blood in many downstream applications.

New on the Genetic Link: A few years ago we launched our Developing Economies Grant Program to foster innovative and novel proposals for the use of DNA Genotek's DNA sample collection kits for human genetics and microbiome research in developing countries. The recipient of the award went to Dr. Marcela Brocco, from the University of San Martin, for her research focused on human genomics. Learn more about Dr. Marcela Brocco and her team's ongoing study about prenatal stress and infant development in our newly published article.

New on The Genetic Link: If you travel the world and visit different human cultures, you will notice that humans have high variability in their lifestyles and diets. Little is known about the connection between taste perception and lifestyle, but one research team in Sweden and France wanted to explore this connection by looking at the genetic evolution of human taste.
