The field of women’s health suffers from a lack of specific and standardized tools optimized for the study of the human vaginal microbiome. Learn about the OMNIgene™•VAGINAL device for the self-collection and stabilization of vaginal samples, and OMNIgene™•XTRACT ULTRA extraction kits for the recovery of vaginal microbial DNA and RNA to support vaginal microbiome discovery.
The OMNIgene™•XTRACT ULTRA kit enables the optimal recovery of large quantities of high-quality DNA and RNA from a wide range of sample types including vaginal samples collected with the OMNIgene™•VAGINAL device. The OMNIgene™•XTRACT ULTRA kit is the first solution validated to provide significantly higher DNA and RNA yields from vaginal samples to better support multi-omic analysis of microbial communities.
