ORAgene™
DNA Self-Collection Kit
The Challenge:
To create an easy to use, all-in-one system for the collection,
preservation, transportation and storage of DNA from saliva.
Accomplishments:
• designed a non-invasive, reliable self-collection
kit that increases compliance and decreases costs
• trained staff is not required to take samples
• the chemistry is safely stored in the lid behind a
heat sealed film which is released by cutters in the base
when the lid is threaded on
• the ergonomic form is sympathetic and easy to handle,
even for elderly donors
• the product has a functional, new look while still
maintaining a credible and medical appearance
• compact, robust design is ideal for storage and mailing
• specifically designed to fit through European mail
slots
Responsibilities: Full industrial design,
3D CAD geometry, development of an improved Oragene release
system, product testing, and manufacturer liaison.
