NONINVASIVE TECHNOLOGIES

Non Invasive Technologies™ was founded to provide the life scientist and the clinical investigator with a noninvasive means of obtaining significant numbers of somatic cells from humans or animals for investigational and diagnostic purposes. This technology is based on the discovery by Dr. Padmanabhan Nair (formerly with the Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center, USDA) in the late 1980's that cells shed from the wall of the colon into the fecal stream form an ideal source of somatic cells for the noninvasive study of human cellular physiology in health and disease. The SCSR system, optimized for room temperature preservation and transport of samples, enables the investigator to obtain viable cells in their native state, retaining the antigenicity of cell surface markers (proteins), mRNA of expressed genes, and genomic DNA. As a platform technology this approach opens up new opportunities in the life sciences... SCSR™ is the only available kit for isolating cells from fecal..
