Blood starts changing the moment collection ends. Everything after that depends on what you collected it in — that’s the idea behind It Starts With the Right Tube, and it’s the thinking underneath everything in the handbook.

A few ways Streck’s stabilization portfolio puts that into practice:

• Ambient stability, no cold chain: Nucleic Acid Plus BCT™ helps limit the cell breakdown that alters cfDNA and cfRNA signal for up to 7 days, and extracellular vesicle and select plasma protein signal for up to 5 days, at 18 °C to 25 °C. This means you can build your protocol around your schedule, not a freezer’s.
• One draw, multiple analyte classes: cfDNA, cfRNA, miRNA, EVs, and select plasma proteins from a single tube, giving you fewer collection SOPs to validate and maintain as your assay evolves.
• A documented path to scale: the Streck Tube Early Innovators Program gives teams still defining their workflow fit-based tube access, technical consultation and guidance, so scaling later is far less likely to mean revalidating from scratch.
