Feces sampling container for gut microbiota analysis with preservative solution (brush type) (TSG-FS-0016)

Techno Suruga Lab

Catalog No.: TSG-FS-0016-10

Product Description

Analysis of the intestinal flora (gut microbiota) is rapidly expanding from research to healthcare. In academia, numerous papers have been published, ranging from basic to clinical studies. In the business sector, services that stratify an individual's intestinal environment are emerging one after another. Currently, intestinal flora is an important research topic and is gaining attention as a foundation for new business ventures. This kit is a stool collection kit specifically designed for intestinal microbiota analysis, developed by our company, which has over 20 years of experience in intestinal environment analysis. It is compatible with next-generation sequencing (NGS) and facilitates the accurate acquisition of microbiota data. The microbiota in the collected stool can be preserved at room temperature for up to one month using a dedicated preservative. Its slim design—measuring 11.6 cm in length and 0.9 cm in diameter—minimizes the burden of stool collection, transportation, and storage. It has also been used in numerous academic papers on intestinal microbiota. Our fecal collection kit expands the possibilities for both intestinal environment research and business development.

What is the Fecal Collection Kit for Intestinal Microbiota Analysis?

Features

Long-term Room Temperature Storage
After collection, the bacterial flora in the feces can be stably stored at room temperature for up to one month. This simplifies temperature control during transportation and storage, contributing to reduced shipping costs and improved operational efficiency.

Compact Collection Container
The collection container is compact, measuring 11.6 cm in length and 0.9 cm in diameter, making fecal collection easy and convenient. This reduces the burden on the subject and facilitates smooth sample collection.

Optional Kits with Collection Sheets
For added convenience, we also offer kit sets that include collection sheets. These help improve collection rates and provide reassurance to subjects.

Academically Verified Preservation Performance
The performance of the preservation solution has been validated in academic papers.* Additionally, our kits have been widely adopted in studies on intestinal microbiota analysis. By using our kits, you can obtain highly reliable data.

Application

■ Academic Research
Our kits are widely used in a range of studies, from basic to clinical research. Examples include investigations into the relationship between dietary fiber and intestinal flora, as well as studies on the association between various diseases and the gut microbiota. They support the analysis of intestinal environments and advance research in related fields at universities and public research institutions.

■ Product Research and Development
Our fecal collection kits are also utilized in corporate product development. For instance, when examining the relationship between functional foods and the gut microbiota, fecal samples collected with our kit can be analyzed using amplicon sequencing to evaluate correlations between the foods and microbiota composition.

■ Gut Flora Stratification Services
Our kits are employed in gut flora stratification services for individuals and medical institutions. Their academic-grade preservation capabilities and user-friendly slim design contribute significantly to the expansion of healthcare-related services and business development.
