SAMPLE PREPARATION SYSTEMS Copan Flock Technologies offers a complete array of custom engineered simple, compact, self contained sample preparation systems for Rapid Point of Collection Assays. Samples are often collected in situations where the simplicity of sample preparation is of paramount importance to perform quick accurate rapid tests. Testing can be in a point-of-care (POC) scenario at a patient’s bedside or at a roadside investigation when drugs of abuse are suspected. CFT’s Sample Preparation Systems are preassembled, ready to use devices for sample preparation at the point of collection. CFT’s sample processing tubes are made of soft flexible plastic, and when combined with the tethered dropper form a squeezable dispensing device, it can be used to apply one or more droplets onto a lateral flow test cartridge. PLUS FEATURES C-Series (press-on cap) NO NEED FOR ADDITIONAL SAMPLE PREPARATION SUPPLIES CUSTOMIZED PRODUCTS Custom Design, Mold, and Fill Key Components for your Assay. Can be filled with one or two reagents for sample treatment depending upon the assay chemistry. Cap allows samples to be sealed and forwarded to a reference lab. CUSTOM FILTER RETAINS PARTICLES OR SEMI SOLID DEBRIS SAMPLE PREPARATION DEVICES ARE CUSTOMIZABLE and may include a combination of sample processing tubes, reagents, tethered dropper, tube cap and FLOQSwab™. J-Series (screw cap) PRE FILLED WITH TWO SEPARATE REAGENTS which are kept separate until use. IDEAL FOR SINGLE SHOT TESTING PnR, an acronym for Pierce-able and Re-sealable, is the name of COPAN unique patent pending invention of pierce-able and re-sealable screw caps of various sizes designed to be applied to specimen collection tubes. The top of the cap is covered with a pierceable metallic foil film, which protects the Duck Bill valve until the moment of use. The PnR cap revolutionizes specimen management by eliminating time consuming de-capping, re-capping, and repetitive stress injuries. Also, the re-sealable feature ensures that specimens are immediately reclosed, eliminating the need to manually do that and avoiding potential contamination from tubes being open for prolonged periods of time. PLUS FEATURES ENABLES EASY ENTRY AND EXIT BY AUTOMATIC PIPETTING SYSTEMS LOAD AND WALK AWAY: no need to remove and replace tube caps during processing. THE PNR CAP, WHEN USED WITH AN AUTOMATIC PIPETTOR, ENABLES AUTOMATIC OPENING, SAMPLING, AND RECLOSING AUTOMATICALLY AND QUICKLY RESEALS AFTER SAMPLING AND IS LEAKPROOF REDUCES RISK OF REPETITIVE STRESS DISORDER BY ELIMINATING THE NEED TO CAP AND RECAP SAMPLES UNIQUE DUCK BILL VALVE: no risk of vacuum or positive pressure. SCALABLE DESIGN: 16mm, 12mm and 10mm diam

THIS NEW PLASTIC PnR CAP WORKS AS FOLLOWS: 1 - The PnR cap arrives sealed (with a foil seal), which prevents any leakage or evaporation. 2 - The automatic pipettor pierces through the foil seal and it breaks the membrane valve along a “micro-perforated” line. 3 - Then the automatic pipettor enters the tube. The pressure must equilibrate immediately. Otherwise, the volume uptake is hindered or compromised by the pressure. 4 - The liquid is taken up and then the automatic pipettor exits. 5 - The PnR cap’s membrane valve will reconstitute within a few seconds to make the tube leakproof. THE PNR...
