Description

The Forensic Genetics Team uses sampling device for collecting buccal epithelial cells for forensic genetic examinations. The samples are further processed for production of DNA-profiles; based on the analysis of these profiles forensic examination reports are issued for official purposes e.g. in parenthood or family reunification cases. A great majority of the samples are collected by untrained amateurs (also from newborn babies), which sets technical demands for the sampling device. The samples are not stored in the sampling place, but instead they are mailed upon collection to the laboratory analyzing the samples. The delivery time of taken samples can be several days or even months. The sampling device entity must consist of a brush in a plastic tube. More detailed specifications were described in the Section "Procurement Object Criteria" of the Call of Tender in "Minimum Requirements Concerning the Tendered Goods". Other mandatory requirements relating to this procurement were described in detail in the Call for Tender and its Annexes.
