Recently, Volumetric Absorptive Microsampling (VAMS™) technology helped a group of organ transplant patients summit Mt. Kilimanjaro. Now students and scientists from the biomedical engineering program at Duke University have found another transformative new use case: testing children in Liberia for biomarkers associated with malnutrition.
Over the summer, Daniel Joh, an MD-PhD student at Duke, and Angus Hucknall, a senior research scientist, touched down in New Kru Town, a neighborhood in the outer reaches of Monrovia, Liberia. They were there to field test diagnostic tools designed to rapidly measure the biomarkers linked to malnutrition. In this low-resourced reigion, they set up shop at Redemption Clinic, and made use of some revolutionary medical innovations to do their work under subprime conditions. Read more.

The Mitra Device is a single-use, non-sterile device used as a specimen collector and for the storage and transport of blood or other biological fluids. It is designed to be used by laboratory and healthcare professionals, or end-users as a container to collect and transport blood or other biological fluids. It is not specific to any clinical test, and is not for use in diagnostic procedures. Use of the Mitra Microsampler in Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) requires further processing including the establishment of performance characteristics and successful validation by the laboratory in a manner consistent with CLIA and/or other regulatory requirements.
The Mitra Microsampling Device is a FDA listed Class 1 exempt device, CE-IVD self-certified in the UK and EU, a Class I IVD in Australia, and registered with Health Canada. Neoteryx operates a Quality Management System (QMS) that is based on FDA good manufacturing practices, 21 CFR 820 regulations, and ISO-13485.
