the user-friendly solution for accurate remote specimen collection
Discover smarter, easier specimen sampling, anywhere, at any time, by almost anyone, with the Mitra® cartridge device.
“We can now sit at home and do a sample using the device, send it off, and get an accurate result without having to leave the comfort of our own home – It’s a lot less stressful, plus we don’t need to take a whole day out just to go for a blood test or clinic visit, which makes school attendance better.”
-Caroline Knapp, mother of a young kidney transplant patient in the UK
In the US, use of the Mitra device with blood is limited to research and non-diagnostic applications. In many countries outside the US, the Mitra device is approved as a remote blood sample collection device for some clinical applications, as referenced in this content.
