Dried Blood Spots (DBS)

Capillary blood, collected from the fingertip, is applied onto barcoded blood collection cards which allow complete traceability of the sample over the entire process. There are various automation solutions available, both for punching out the dried blood spots and automated test processing, which are suitable for every laboratory size and sample throughput.
