Awesome product

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

DNA Sequencing

The product has the easiest sample storage protocol

Review Date: 6 Mar 2018 | Streck

Cell-Free DNA BCT stabilizes cell-free DNA for up to 7 days at 6 °C to 37 °C*. It contains a preservative reagent that reduces the release of contaminating cellular genomic DNA that can occur during sample handling, shipping and processing. The cfDNA and CTCs isolated from stored plasma can be used in next generation sequencing assays that have been cleared or approved for use with samples collected into Cell-Free DNA BCT.

Liquid biopsies for early cancer detection: Current and future trends

Wednesday, July 9, at 16:00 BST | 17:00 CEST | 11:00 EDT | 8:00 PDT

Early cancer detection remains one of the biggest challenges in oncology, with many cancers going undetected until later stages when treatment options are more limited. Advances in multi-cancer early detection (MCED) aim to address this by identifying multiple cancer types through a single test, often using a simple blood draw.

This has been made possible by the rise of liquid biopsies, which offer a less invasive, faster alternative to traditional tissue biopsies. However, the accuracy and reliability of these tests hinge on one critical factor: sample stability. The choice of blood collection tube plays a vital role in preserving analytes and ensuring high-quality, reproducible results. As the field evolves, combining multiomics with robust pre-analytical practices is key to unlocking the full potential of liquid biopsy technologies.

Join us for this panel discussion – held in partnership with Streck – exploring the future of early cancer detection and the science behind better liquid biopsies. As part of our Accelerating Science feature, this session brings together leading experts to dive deep into the evolving landscape of cancer detection and the pivotal technologies delivering reliable diagnostic outcomes.

Meet our experts:

  • Dr. Tina Clarke Dur, Vice President of Epidemiology and Distinguished Scientist at GRAIL
  • Dr. Gary Pestano, Chief Development Officer at Biodesix
  • Kevin Billings, Director of Business Segment – Stabilization at Streck

Key learning objectives:

  • Gain insights into cutting-edge advancements in multicancer early detection assay development, including strategies for improving sensitivity and specificity.
  • Understand best practices for assay distribution, with a focus on ensuring accessibility and minimizing logistical challenges.
  • Learn pre-analytical techniques to streamline workflows and maximize scalability in multicancer early detection testing.
  • Acquire knowledge on how to collaborate effectively with key opinion leaders to drive innovation and optimize implementation of MCED assays.

Whether you're a researcher, clinician or healthcare innovator, this session is your opportunity to hear directly from the pioneers pushing the boundaries of what's possible in cancer detection.


Simplifying your blood sample analysis with Cell-Free DNA BCT

In this video, Streck provides information on how Cell-Free DNA BCT® can eliminate pre-analytical variation, removing the requirement for immediate plasma isolation. The technology stabilizes cell-free DNA for up to seven days at 6°C to 37°C, featuring a preservative reagent to minimize the release of contaminating cellular genomic DNA during sample handling, shipping, and processing. The stored plasma, including cell-free DNA (cfDNA), remains suitable for use in next-generation sequencing assays cleared or approved for samples collected into Cell-Free DNA BCT.
