Blood collection tube

Cell-Free DNA BCT is a blood collection tube with a formaldehyde-free preservative stabilizing nucleated blood cells. This stabilization prevents the release of genomic DNA, allowing isolation of high-quality cell-free DNA suitable for a wide range of downstream applications commonly used in clinical research studies, drug discovery, and diagnostic assay development. Available in two sizes, 10 mL and 2 mL, the tubes allow convenient sample collection, transport and storage. Cell-Free DNA BCT is for Research Use Only. Not for use in U.S. diagnostic procedures.
