A surgical blade incises to a standardized depth and length An incision created to allow blood to flow freely A higher quality blood sample is collected and bruising is diminished. Blade permanently retracts after use for safety Available in three incision depths for preemies, toddlers and full term infants. Tenderlett® Lancet for Finger Sticks Incision device with blade that cuts to a controlled, standardized depth. Shallow incision created which cuts more of the capillary bed without cutting too deeply. Blood flows more freely providing a higher quality blood specimen. Blade permanently retracts after use for safety Available in three depths for the appropriate patient population. Instructions for Specimen Collection: Do not touch any of the filter paper circle before or after collection. Select puncture site and cleanse with 70% isopropanol. Use a sterile, disposable lancet with 2.0 mm, or less, point Keep heel in down position at or below heart level. Wipe away first blood drop. Use second LARGE blood drop to apply to surface of filter paper circle. If not completely filled, add a second LARGE drop immediately. FILL all required circles completely. FILL from only one side of the filter paper. Dry specimen at room temperature 3-4 hours in HORIZONTAL position. IMPROPERLY COLLECTED SAMPLES MUST BE REJECTED. Tips for Specimen Collection: Complete each item on the collection form. Closely follow the collection instructions on the request form. Warm heel with a warm towel and hold heel at or below the heart. Fill one circle at a time. If capillaries are used to transfer blood from heel to paper: Capillaries must be heparinized (Do not use EDTA). Mix capillaries well before applying blood to filter paper. Apply blood to filter paper immediately after filling. Do not touch capillary to filter paper.

Specimens should be separated from the filter paper if testing will not be completed immediately Specimens should be stored in microvolume tubes with caps equipped with rubber gaskets. Store short-term at 4oC and long-term and –20oC Blank wells for serum controls (must follow configuration of plate as directed by EIA kit) Dried Blood Spot (DBS) controls in duplicate: High Positive (HPC) Low Positive (LPC) Negative (NC) Initial EIA If spots are not white after elution, insufficient elution may have occurred. Record observations.
