Primerdesign and Origin Sciences have entered into a strategic partnership to create a new protocol that optimizes DNA extraction from novel rectal mucosal samples, according to an announcement

The custom workflow will help to unlock molecular insights from these challenging sample types and improve diagnostic utility in gut health conditions. The collaboration will leverage Origin’s OriCol device for rapid, minimally invasive sample collection, and Primerdesign’s custom assay development and high-quality nucleic acid extraction solutions as part of its exsig Mag range. Together the companies have collaborated to develop an innovative, robust and reproducible sample collection and nucleic acid extraction workflow that demonstrates consistent performance and high DNA yields from rectal mucus samples.
