Product Overview

NAO® Basket is a semi-permeable system designed for releasing and concentrating human DNA from swab samples or other specimens during the extraction step. Used with Copan's FLOQSwabs® flocked swabs and a one-step centrifugation, the system provides a fast and highly efficient method for releasing and concentrating all nucleic acids present in a swab sample, card punches or other specimens into a processing tube.

Features

Lyse & Centrifuge in the Basket

Innovative product design allows the passage of DNA from samples into the tube using a tight leak-proof design that can endure vortexing, centrifugations, and various storage conditions

Multiple Configurations

Available in single pouches or bulk packs with 1.5ml or 2ml vials.

Compatibility

NAO® Basket is compatible with most commercial Nucleic Extraction Platforms.

Forensic DNA Grade

ISO 18385:2016 compliant system minimizes the risk of detectable human nuclear DNA contamination in products used by the global forensic community.

NUCLEIC ACID OPTIMIZER: NAO™ Basket

The Smart Nucleic Acid Optimizer’s semi-permeable basket, used with Copan’s FLOQSwabs® flocked swabs, and a one step centrifugation, is a fast and highly efficient system for releasing and concentrating all nucleic acids present in a swab sample, card punches or other specimens into a processing tube.

Maximize DNA Recovery

The combination of NAO® Basket and FLOQSwabs® provides more than 90% DNA recovery of the reference sample collected by the swab, particularly critical for crime scene evidence testing. The 20 mm breaking point designed on the 4N6FLOQSwabs® is compatible with the NAO® Basket.

Secure In-Basket Lysis

NAO® Basket retains the sample during the lysis step of the forensic sample. Upon centrifugation, valves in the bottom of the NAO® Basket open up and allow the sample lysate to pass through while the substrate remains in the NAO® Basket.
