DNA Storage

Product Description:

The DNA Storage is a Product made to store your families DNA for future generations. There is NO LAB needed and the customer can do it them self. The capsule is kept by the customer and only sent to a lab once ready for genetic testing. It has a triple sealed barrier, thus protecting the DNA from moisture and degeneration. The container does not need to be refrigerated which is better for the environment. Once the capsule is properly sealed, it should only be opened at a lab when the family wishes to have the blood tested. Blood is used rather than a cheek swab because blood provides a high quality quantity of the DNA. The testing facility is able to run numerous tests for analysis on the same sample. It is a bit more invasive than the cheek swab, but this is the preferred method for DNA testing for medical conditions. <br> The capsule contains a synthetic chemical matrix which is a mixture of dis-solvable compounds that stabilizes DNA at room temperature. The matrix formulation is based on the natural principles of anhydrobiosis, meaning “life without water”. Anhydrobiosis is a biological mechanism employed by some multi cellular organisms that enable their survival in a dry state for periods over 100 years. Though we recommend going to a lab to have your blood extracted, we do include an at home kit if you wish to have it done at home or funeral home. The complete instructions are included with the product. <br><br> <strong>How Does It Work:</strong> <br> The capsule makes it easy to extract blood so you don’t have to be a registered nurse to figure it out! There are four essential parts to the capsule. The main piece is the capsule itself which holds the vile of blood. The capsule is made of wood and metal to protect the blood sample should it fall or be mishandled. The second piece is the desiccant pack which is placed in the bottom of the capsule before inserting the vile. The desiccant pack takes the hydration out of the air so that the blood can be preserved for many years. The blood vile is the third component that is placed in the capsule. Inside the vile the blood is stored for future testing. Once both items have been placed in the capsule you must seal it tightly with the lid to prevent air from getting inside and ruining the contents. <br><br> <strong><font color=blue>Our DNA Storage: <br> Was shown on Americas favorite CBS Hit Show CSI - Season Premier 2013</font></strong>
