Good preservation and storage are essential to preserving microorganisms’ genetic material in microbial communities from wide array of sample inputs and accurately represent the bacterial composition for further analysis and applications. The objective is to develop a proper preservation and storage medium to preserve DNA and RNA from those microorganisms. DANAGEN-BIOTED has developed a new product to deal with this problem.
