BASi Poster Presentations
“The Culex® Automated In Vivo Sampling System: A Novel Technique for Dried Blood Spot (DBS) Collection in Preclinical Studies”
Despite the well documented benefits of DBS sampling, the manual spotting of blood samples onto DBS cards is a labor intensive process. This poster describes a novel automated technique, using the Culex® Automated In Vivo Blood Sampling System, for directly collecting whole blood samples in the DBS format.
“A Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of Acetaminophen in Dog Plasma and Dried Blood Spots Using Automated Blood Collection”
It is possible regulatory agencies will require submission of data from dual sampling techniques to ensure the validity of data from DBS. BASi seeks to reduce inter-method variability by simultaneously collecting plasma and DBS from the same animal using the Culex® Automated Blood Collection System and then to compare the toxicokinetic parameters.
