Sterlitech Now Offering PrimeCare™ Blood Separation Membranes
· Microbiology and Life Science News
Sterlitech is proud to announce a new addition to our growing portfolio of specialty membranes. PrimeCare™ Blood Separation Membranes, now available for use in diagnostic and clinical applications where efficient plasma separation from whole blood is critical.
These high-performance membranes are specifically engineered for membrane-based plasma separation. They enable rapid, equipment-free isolation of plasma from whole blood – an essential step for accurate and reliable diagnostic testing.
Key Benefits and Features:
- Designed for Lateral Flow Assays: Optimized for use in diagnostic devices that rely on clean plasma for accurate detection and measurement
- Sample Integrity: Custom coatings designed to reduce or prevent red blood cell hemolysis, helping preserve the quality and stability of the plasma sample
- Efficient Blood Filtration: Reliably removes red blood cells to deliver a clear, cell-free plasma sample suitable for downstream analysis
- Flexible Formats Available: The PrimeCare™ membranes can be customized to fit a variety of device configurations and performance needs
- Consistent Quality and Performance: Manufactured under stringent quality standards to ensure batch-to-batch reliability
Applications:
- Blood Glucose Monitoring: In diabetic testing devices, PrimeCare™ membranes allow for plasma separation from capillary blood samples, enhancing measurement accuracy and consistency.
- Infectious Disease Detection: Used in membrane-based rapid diagnostic devices to isolate plasma and detect biomarkers for conditions such as HIV, COVID-19, hepatitis, and malaria.
- Hormone Testing: Essential for precise hormone level analysis in reproductive and thyroid testing platforms, where red blood cell interference must be minimized.
- Immunoassays: Serve as a front-end filtration step in membrane-based immunoassay systems, improving signal clarity and reducing variability.
- Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM): Support accurate plasma drug level readings in clinical settings through clean and efficient blood component separation.
- Point-of-Care and Home Diagnostics: Ideal for compact, user-friendly diagnostic platforms requiring fast, reliable results—especially in decentralized or resource-limited environments.
