Storage & Handling
Finger-prick capillary blood may be taken and used at point-of-care. Cap and store the serum or plasma samples at 2-8°C for no more than 24 hours prior to testing. For long-term storage, freeze the serum or plasma samples at -20°C. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. Mix thawed samples thoroughly by low speed vortexing or by inverting 10 times. Bring samples to room temperature prior to testing for at least 30 minutes. Visually inspect the samples. If layering or stratification is observed, continue mixing until samples are visibly homogeneous.
