Principle
EasiCollect + Buccal Sample Collection Device
EasiCollect + and FTA facilitate analysis and sample storage FTA chemistry lyses cells on contact, denatures proteins, and protects DNA from degradation. DNA remains tightly bound to the FTA Card while proteins and inhibitors are washed away. Once dried, the FTA Card can be removed from the EasiCollect + device and archived. The slim design of the card enables high-capacity storage. Compatible semi- and fully automated punching systems The EasiCollect + device includes a removable Indicating FTA Card with a cleaning punch area. Indicating FTA cards are fully compatible with the BSD600 Ascent Punch Instrument, QIAGEN's STAR Q Punch AS, the Hamilton easyPunch and other semi-automated punching systems, removing the bottleneck of manual FTA punching. Separate device or custom buccal sample collection kit For maximum flexibility, the EasiCollect + device can be purchased separately or included in a custom collection kit as part of our EasiKit service EasiCollectPlease note: There is a new version of this product, EasiCollect +, which has a improved design.
The EasiCollect device simplifies buccal cell collection and transportation. The novel design has been engineered for maximal cell collection and uniform sample application to FTA Cards to overcome individual differences. The pressure clips molded into the EasiCollect device ensure a uniform and constant pressure for reproducible transfer of cells to the FTA Card. EasiCollect and FTA Facilitate Analysis and Storage FTA chemistry lyses cells on contact, denatures proteins, and protects DNA from degradation. DNA remains tightly bound to the FTA Card while proteins and inhibitors are washed away. Once dried, the FTA Card can be removed from the EasiCollect device and archived. The slim design of the card enables high capacity storage. EasiCollect device includes a removable 2 x 2 inch (5 x 5 cm) Indicating FTA Card. Indicating FTA Cards are fully compatible with the BSD600 Ascent Punch Instrument, QIAGEN's STAR Q Punch AS, Hamilton easyPunch, and other automated punching systems, removing the bottleneck of manual FTA punching. For maximum flexibility, the EasiCollect device can be purchased separately, in the off-the-shelf EasiCollect buccal sample collection kit, or included in a custom buccal sample collection kit as part of our EasiKit service. Collection KitsThe EasiCollect Buccal Collection Kit, the FTA Buccal Collection Kit and the Whatman FTA Blood Sample Collection Kit allow consistent sample collection and provide reliable results.

Whatman FTA Blood Sample Collection KitConvenient and cost-effective Standardized Whatman FTA forensic sample collection kits are a convenient, cost-effective option for DNA reference sample collection, in the field or forensic lab. Each blood sample kit is fully equipped with the necessary components for sample collection, preservation and DNA analysis using a non-indicating FTA micro card. Kit contents The FTA blood collection kit contains an FTA Micro Card, an alcohol wipe, a sterile lancet, adhesive bandage, removable barcodes, gloves, a multi-barrier pouch, a mailing envelope, tamper-proof tape for the mailing envelope, desiccant and a clear outer bag labeled with code number and expiration date. About Whatman FTA cards and kits FTA technology consists of a proprietary chemically coated matrix that effectively lyses cells on contact, denatures proteins and captures DNA onto the card matrix. The captured DNA is then protected from degradation during long-term room temperature storage. Leading global DNA collection and preservation tools Whatman FTA cards are one of the leading DNA collection and preservation tools used globally in forensic applications. More than 200 publications demonstrate the uses and benefits of FTA within the scientific community, and more than 50 countries around the world rely on FTA for archiving of DNA from both blood and buccal cell samples. Manufactured to ISO 9001:2008 standards A downloadable demographics form can be edited to include information about the collection agency. The Whatman FTA cards and FTA kits are manufactured to ISO 9001:2008 standards to ensure quality. Spare parts Please contact your local QIAGEN service representative.
