Description
BD™ P800 delivers enhanced accuracy in measuring plasma metabolic markers such as Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1), Glucagon, non-acyl Ghrelin, Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP), and Oxyntomodulin (OXM) by stabilizing them at the point of collection.
BD™ P800 is an evacuated blood collection tube containing a proprietary cocktail of protease inhibitors, specifically optimized for stabilization of metabolic markers. The plasma obtained by processing the BD™ P800 tube can be used immediately, transported, or stored frozen.
BD™ P800 is for research use only – it is not for use in diagnostic procedures.
