Isolation, characterization and stabilization of urinary cell-free DNA (ISLB 2020)

Arora et al, ISLB 2020 (poster)

Aim: Develop and evaluate a novel urinary analyte stabilizer for urinary cell-free DNA

Partners: DNA Genotek Ottawa, Novosanis Wijnegem

Results: No significant difference in the average yield of urinary cell free DNA isolated using different extraction methods. Unstabilized urine samples held at ambient temperature showed increase in the bacterial growth/lysis and decrease in the human cell-free DNA content. DNA Genotek’s novel proprietary urinary analyte stabilizer (UAS) preserves the detection of urinary cell-free DNA for 7 days at RT.
