Zymo Research at Lucerna-Chem – Innovation. Pure & Simple.

High-quality, easy-to-use solutions for sample collection, DNA/RNA purification, microbiomics, epigenetics, enzymes and NGS – available through Lucerna-Chem.

As official distributor of Zymo Research, Lucerna-Chem brings you a comprehensive portfolio of molecular biology solutions built on three core pillars: Innovation, Quality and Customer Service.

From sample collection to ready-to-analyse libraries, Zymo Research products are designed to make workflows faster, simpler and more reliable – “The Beauty of Science is to Make Things Simple.”

1. Sample Collection & Stabilization

Secure your samples at the moment of collection with DNA/RNA Shield™ reagents and collection devices.

DNA/RNA Shield™ preserves DNA and RNA while inactivating microbial, viral and eukaryotic pathogens, allowing shipment and storage at ambient temperatures while preserving metagenomic and metatranscriptomic profiles.

DNA/RNA Shield Collection
  • DNA/RNA Shield™ Reagent 1x or 2X Concentrate – universal stabilization solution for any biological sample.

  • DNA/RNA Shield™ SafeCollect™ Swab & Saliva Kits –  user-friendly devices for  sampling of respiratory or saliva specimens.

  • DNA/RNA Shield™ Fecal Collection Tube & Bunny Wipe™ – complete kits for secure fecal sampling and stabilization.

  • DNA/RNA Shield™ Blood Collection Tube – ready-to-use blood tubes that stabilize nucleic acids and inactivate pathogens.

2. DNA Purification & Plasmid Purification

  • ZymoPURE™ Plasmid Kits – fast, endotoxin-free plasmid DNA from mini- to giga-prep scale.
  • Quick-DNA™ Plus Kits – total genomic DNA from virtually any biological sample (blood, cells, tissu etc.).

  • Quick-DNA™ Fecal/Soil Microbe & Fungal/Bacterial Kits – bead-beating lysis and efficient inhibitor removal.

  • DNA Clean & Concentrator®-5 – quick clean-up and concentration of DNA samples.

  • Zymoclean™ Gel DNA Recovery Kit – high-recovery extraction of DNA from agarose gels and PCR reactions.

Zymo offers a broad DNA portfolio for rapid, inhibitor-free purification from virtually any matrix – from blood and tissues to soil, feces and complex microbiome samples. High yields and clean eluates make these kits ideal for PCR, qPCR and NGS.
