Common Applications | Cellular in vitro assays | Gene expression analysis | In vitro diagnostic DNA testing | Molecular testing of infectious diseases | Stabilization of select metabolic markers | Plasma protein stabilization |
Description | A closed system for separation of mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from whole blood. | Immediate stabilization of intracellular RNA, thereby yielding accurate and reproducible gene expression data. | The first blood collection tube specifically designed for in vitro diagnostic DNA testing (collect, anticoagulate, stabilize, transport, and store a venous whole blood sample for preparation of DNA). | A closed system for separation and storage of undiluted EDTA plasma in the primary blood collection tube for molecular diagnostic testing. | Stabilization of metabolic markers such as Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1), Glucagon, non-acyl Ghrelin, Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP), and Oxyntomodulin (OXM) at the point of collection. | Stabilization of human plasma proteins at the point of collection to minimize preanalytical variability in plasma protein analysis. |
