next generation, user-friendly DBS sampling

designed for manual and automated DBS processing

delivering dependable volumetric accuracy and sample security

volumetric accuracy + sample integrity = hemaPEN

The user-friendly hemaPEN® improves capillary sampling with its innovative design featuring four integrated capillary tubes. This setup enables the simultaneous collection of four consistent blood spots from a single finger-stick, directly transferring them onto four pre-punched industry standard DBS within the device. Designed for simplicity and precision, the hemaPEN® ensures that once collected and the device is clicked shut, the volumetrically identical samples are securely locked inside for maximum protection.

hemaPEN®: precision DBS for advanced diagnostics

The hemaPEN® is optimized for seamless integration into both manual and automated DBS processing systems, making it a versatile tool for various research and clinical environments. The hemaPEN® reduces the potential for sample contamination and degradation, ensuring that each sample remains pristine from collection to analysis. This meticulous approach enhances the integrity of the results, providing researchers and clinicians with reliable data for precise diagnostics and research conclusions.

volumetric accuracy

Quantitative sampling of low volumes of blood with pipette-like precision (RSD ≤ 5%). hemaPEN® eliminates traditional blood hematocrit biases. No glue used in assembly, no matrix interferences.

enhanced sample integrity

hemaPEN®'s enclosed system protects samples from exposure, reducing contamination risks and preserving the quality of biological specimens.

streamlined laboratory workflow

With pre-punched DBS cards and no need for aliquoting, hemaPEN® simplifies the lab process, saving time and reducing human error.

adaptable and user-friendly

Designed for both manual and automated systems, hemaPEN® facilitates high-throughput and precision in various research and clinical settings.

The hemaPEN is perfect for those looking to collect low volumes of blood for best user experience while being confident that samples remain pristine from collection to analysis. The device features K2 EDTA-coated borosilicate capillaries and a transparent tip for straightforward monitoring of the collection process. The integrated desiccant ensures a consistent drying and storage, no matter the environmental conditions, making it ideal for sampling in both clinical and field settings.
Additionally, the hemaPEN® seamlessly integrates into existing lab systems with its cartridge design suitable for microtiter plate formats. It supports automated processes and robust chain of custody management with integrated 2D barcodes, enhancing laboratory efficiency and analytical accuracy. This makes the hemaPEN® an invaluable tool for researchers and clinicians seeking reliable, high-throughput sample processing in a variety of settings.
