    ADVANCE YOUR PROTEOMIC RESEARCH WITH HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN BCT

    For research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures

    HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN | BCT

    OMNIgene™•XTRACT OM-XT-50 product kit

    Transforming proteomic research through extended protein stabilization and simplified workflow

    • HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN blood collection tube (BCT) is designed to preserve draw-time concentrations of plasma proteins in whole blood for up to 7 days*
    • Facilitates storage and transport at ambient temperatures, eliminating the need for cold-chain shipping
    • Minimizes ex vivo hemolysis and platelet activation in the collected sample to limit the release of cellular proteins, providing a representative in vivo proteomic profile

    *Stabilization is determined from a representative subset of plasma proteins.

    Streamlined sample management and operational efficiency with HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN BCT

    🧪

    SAMPLE INTEGRITY
    Maintains plasma protein stability for up to 7 days* in whole blood, reducing the risk of protein degradation due to shipping delays or variable plasma isolation procedures

    👐

    SIMPLIFIED HANDLING
    Reduces immediate processing requirements and minimizes the potential variability introduced during the preanalytical stage of the workflow

    💲

    COST-EFFECTIVE
    Provides cost savings from eliminating cold-chain shipping and refrigeration, as well as reducing sample recollection and repeat processing

    icon-saccessible

    EXPANDED REACH
    Enables collection across a variety of geographies and settings without risk to sample quality

    ProteoPrecision™ technology
    Formulated to preserve protein integrity at the point of collection and maintain effective compartmentalization of cellular and cell-free content

    HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN BCT contains a novel stabilizing liquid designed to minimize hemolysis and stabilize plasma proteins for an extended period at ambient temperature enabling the generation of high-quality proteomic data across a range of proteomic technologies.

    Hemoglobin concentration (mg/dL) in plasma isolated from HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN BCT and EDTA blood samples (n = 10) measured at baseline (T0) and after simulated transport (subjected to temperature cycling between 4°C and 30°C for 24 hours at each temperature), followed by room temperature storage for a total duration of (5 d) 5 days or (7 d) 7 days

    Minimized hemolysis after sample collection, storage and transport

    ELISA-based measurement of EGF levels as a marker of ex vivo platelet activation in plasma isolated from HEMAcollect™●PROTEIN BCT and EDTA samples (n = 10), assessed at baseline (T0) or after simulated transport and storage. Whole blood was subjected to temperature cycling between 4°C and 30°C and isolated plasma between –10°C and 30°C for a minimum of ­24 hours at each temperature, followed by room temperature storage for a total duration of (5 d) 5 days or (7 d) 7 days.
