Certificate of Analysis:
The Science Behind ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab
ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab is engineered to elute samples from synthetic swabs and simultaneously bind a variety of PCR inhibitors found in samples, lyse microorganisms / mammalian cells, and stabilize RNA and DNA in a manner that's compatible with PCR. The product consists of a proprietary mixture of peptides, salts, stabilizers, sequestering molecules, and buffers to achieve these tasks. Reagent Swab allows for extraction-free PCR amplification of samples without performing nucleic acid isolation, centrifugations, or other sample manipulations, which may introduce errors, contaminants and/or skew the representation of nucleic acid fragments.
User should verify the applicability of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab for desired applications.

Storage of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab
ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab is ready for use and no further preparation is necessary. The product should be transported and stored in its original container at 4–25°C until used. Do not overheat. Do not freeze reagent. If ice crystals are observed, then bring reagent to room temperature before use. Improper storage may result in a loss of efficacy. Do not use after expiration date, which is clearly indicated on the bottle.
Satisfaction Guarantee - Warranty Summary
Entopsis guarantees consistent performance of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab to mediate direct PCR amplification from swab samples, however it does not guarantee the functionality of the product for all sample types. Within 7 days of purchase, contact Entopsis ([email protected]) should ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab fail to perform as described. In such a scenario, Entopsis will re-test the Lot in question using remaining reagent at our facility at our expense (purchaser does not need to ship product to Entopsis). If the re-tested Lot fails to meet our performance criteria, Entopsis will replace the faulty reagent free of charge. If the Lot meets our performance criteria as stated on the Certificate of Analysis for the Lot in question, then no additional action will be taken.
Please keep in mind that purchasers may use ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab for numerous applications, sample types, gene targets, conditions, etc. that are untested and thereby may not work as desired. The purchaser must determine the suitability of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab for its particular use. However, the Entopsis scientific team can assist in the optimization of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab for your desired application. Refunds will not be provided due to a lack of product compatibility with purchaser's desired application. This is why small test volumes of ZooOpsis™ Reagent Swab are offered.
THIS WARRANTY ONLY APPLIES IF PRODUCTS ARE PURCHASED FROM AN APPROVED VENDOR (E.G., ENTOPSIS).
