OraSure Launches Novel Blood Collection Device for Proteomic Research

The device has the potential to transform proteomic discovery through extended protein stabilization and a simplified workflow for research

BETHLEHEM, Pa., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OraSure Technologies, Inc. (鈥淥TI鈥�) (NASDAQ: OSUR), a leader in point-of-need and home diagnostic tests and sample management solutions, today announced the launch of its HEMAcollect鈩⑩棌PROTEIN product to meet the evolving needs of proteomic researchers. The product, developed by OTI subsidiary DNA Genotek, is an evacuated blood collection tube (BCT) designed to preserve and stabilize plasma proteins in whole blood for up to seven days.* Currently available for research use only**, the collection tube with its proprietary stabilizing liquid preserves plasma proteins, facilitating storage and transport of blood samples at ambient temperature, which are limitations of general blood collection tubes. It is anticipated that the use of the product for sample collection will deliver operational and financial efficiencies to proteomic researchers and support the generation of high-quality data.

"The HEMAcollect鈩⑩棌PROTEIN BCT represents a significant advancement in sample collection for proteomics, providing researchers with a reliable solution that preserves sample integrity and improves preanalytical workflows," said Carrie Eglinton Manner, President and CEO of OTI. "We're dedicated to enhancing the quality of insights for researchers through our innovative sample management solutions. The launch of this solution for blood proteomics applications is a clear reflection of that commitment and enables research applications in oncology, neurology, cardiology, metabolic disorders, and beyond.鈥�

The HEMAcollect鈩⑩棌PROTEIN BCT, powered by ProteoPrecision鈩� technology, minimizes hemolysis and activation of platelets, ensuring the sample accurately reflects the body鈥檚 state at collection. It is compatible with a broad range of proteomic technologies including mass spectrometry, immunoassays, and high-throughput affinity-based platforms.
