Fluispotter® is the world's only wearable, automated blood sampling system. It is a unique technology to be used for collection and storage of serial blood samples with minimal blood loss.
Fluispotter® is programmable and will collect the samples according to individually designed sampling schedules decided by the user. Drops of blood are dispensed onto a roll of special paper at a requested rate, and can subsequently be analyzed one by one.
The system records the timing of each sample thus enabling accurate monitoring of changes in the blood.
Fluispotter is beneficial when:
- Concentration or presence of analytes in blood needs to be determined frequently and at any time
- Determination of analytes needs to be performed without disturbing or interfering with the free roaming animal at the time of sampling
- Limited freedom to move, discomfort and stress associated with conventional blood sampling techniques would interfere with the purpose of the study or cause unwanted distress to the subject
Indications for use:
- safety pharmacology
- pharmacokinetics and –dynamics (PK/PD)
- endocrinology
- diurnal physiology
- pathophysiology
Fluispotter has been tested for safety and performance in clinical investigations.
