Consistent DNA Quality and Quantity

The truCOLLECT Solution enables reliable and consistent DNA recovery from samples stored at room temperature (100% across cohort size of 94).

Stability at ambient temperature minimizes pre-analytical variability, which is common to other sample collection methods.

DNA Stability Over Time

Whole blood samples processed with the truCOLLECT Solution maintain consistent DNA quantity and quality across multiple donor samples after storage at room temperature for 3-6 months (DNA quantity correlated with white blood cell counts).

Samples also demonstrated stability across extreme temperature conditions (50-75° C)

truCOLLECT Solution FAQs

What is the difference between traditional blood collection and decentralized sampling?

Traditional blood collection relies on in-clinic venipuncture, which can limit participation and introduce logistical complexity in large or distributed studies. Decentralized sampling enables remote collection using self-administered devices, reducing site dependency and improving participant access. The truCOLLECT Solution supports decentralized approaches while maintaining consistent, high-quality DNA suitable for downstream genomic analysis.

How are blood samples collected in decentralized or hybrid clinical studies?

In decentralized and hybrid studies, blood samples are collected using self-administered devices that allow participants to collect samples remotely without visiting a clinical site. The truCOLLECT Solution uses volumetric fingerstick collection combined with ambient stabilization and AFA-enabled extraction, enabling consistent sample input and streamlined processing for DNA extraction from blood through downstream genomic analysis.

How can researchers simplify biospecimen collection and logistics in genomic studies?

Simplifying biospecimen collection requires reducing reliance on clinical infrastructure while ensuring consistency across samples and sites. The truCOLLECT Solution integrates collection, stabilization, and extraction into a single workflow, eliminating cold chain requirements and enabling standardized, automation-ready processing for high-throughput genomic studies.
