Description
This product will be discontinued at January 2021 and replaced by SYL009 – eDNA Dual Filter Capsule with valve connectors
The environmental sampling kit is developed to be used easily and quickly (5 to 7 minutes per sample) in the field with an negligible chance on cross-contamination between sampling sides. In particular if the sampling rod (SYL003) is used for collecting samples. Samples taken with this kit can be stored for months without cooling or freezing. Each tightly closed filter unit will be stored in a separate bag. This will prevent DNA contamination during sample handling and transport. The preservation solution contains an internal positive control (synthetic DNA) which will be used during quality control tests after using the environmental DNA isolation kit (SYL002). A sample with a volume between 30 ml and a few liters can be filtered (pore size of the filter membrane 0.22 µm). The filtered volume depends on the amount of particles and (micro) organisms in the water samples. The kit is optimized for sampling of eDNA, bacteria and (blue green) algae.
