Immunomonitoring made simple

TruCulture Procedure

TruCulture tubes are pre-loaded with cell culture media and immune stimulant(s) or drug candidates. Blood is drawn directly into the TruCulture tube and incubated in a dry heat block. Supernatants are collected by simply inserting a valve separator to separate cells from the culture supernatant.

01. COLLECT

Draw 1 mL of blood directly into the TruCulture Tube and break off the plunger.

02. MIX

Gently invert tube to mix 3 to 5 times

03. INCUBATE

Place tube in 37ºC heat block for up to 24 or 48 hours.

04. SEPARATE

Manually insert valve to separate supernatant from the cells. Collect supernatant and cell layer for downstream analysis.
