Mawi DNA Technologies, a medical device company focusing on the development of innovative technologies for biosampling, has launched the BioWAND, a 100% medical-grade plastic swab designed for high-efficiency capture and release of…
READ MOREAlternative to Blood Samples For Cancer Patients
Immunocompromised patients are often subjected to blood testing at a weekly or biweekly schedule to monitor treatment and health screenings. Mawi understands that these patients may be weary of constant visits to a hospital or clinic due to exposure of potential pathogens. We offer an…
READ MORELooking to Improve Your Success Rate Downstream for DNA Sequencing
When it comes to whole genome sequencing (WGS), customers are reporting a success rate of greater than 95% when utilizing Mawi DNA’s iSWAB-DNA sample collection devices. Here’s what’s different and why it matters. Bacterial DNA in WGS leads to reduced sequencing coverage, false positive variations, bias…
READ MORE4 vs. 1 Achieve More With Less
Mawi’s iSWAB-DNA was used to collect saliva samples from parents and children for Whole Exome Sequencing. Two take away messages from this paper: We enable whole exome sequencing One iSWAB sample collection (iSWAB-DNA-250) vs. Four of DNA Genotek (OGR-175, OGR-500, OGR-525, and OGR-57) View Protocol

Article Abstract Within the over 70 reported transforming growth factor-beta–induced (TGFBI) corneal dystrophy mutations,1more than 40 are associated with lattice corneal dystrophy (LCD), subtypes I, III, IIIA, and IIIB according to the Human Gene Mutation Database (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). This is a follow-up investigation to…
READ MOREUnderstanding the Effects of Waterpipe Smoke on Oxidative Stress in Buccal Cells
Oxidative stress is an imbalance between reactive species and antioxidants production, leading to protein, DNA and lipid damage. The aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative stress levels in buccal cells of ten non-shisha and heavy shisha smokers using MAWI iSWAB protein tubes.…
