When drawing blood at a clinical trial site using the TokuKit, there’s a three step process. The first step involves transferring 2 mL of blood from a vacutainer to “Buffer 1.” Translational scientists realize that clinical trial sites might draw more or less than 2 mL, and worry that these volume changes might throw off their cytometry results.
We tested three volume transfer conditions: 0.5 mL, 1.0 mL, and 3.0 mL. We compared the results to our official control volume of 2.0 mL. Our dataset demonstrates that samples are equally preserved with 0.5, and 3.0 mL. Subsequent analysis revealed no significant differences in the stability and recovery of key immune cell populations between the different volumes. Large or small, TokuKit ensures that every sample is perfectly preserved, delivering reliable data for your trial.
