General
The SERATEC® Amylase Paper is a mapping tool for the preliminary detection of saliva on samples of forensic evidence. A positive result indicates both presence and location of saliva. Thus, the subsequently extracted DNA can be considered to originate from saliva stains (no “touch DNA”).

Benefits

  • fast and reliable: results in only 10 minutes!

  • works on any type of material

  • does not affect DNA of the test object

  • sensitive down to 125 mIU/mL of saliva

  • compatible with other more specific detection techniques and STR typing
