Lipid Saver™ sample collection cards for simple collection of fatty acids from whole blood

Ahlstrom’s Lipid Saver™ specimen collection card is a breakthrough solution for the reliable collection, transport, and long-term preservation of fatty acids from whole blood samples. Designed to work at ambient temperature, this innovative dried blood spot (DBS) technology simplifies workflows for researchers, laboratories, and clinical studies.

Each Lipid Saver™ card features five pre-printed 12mm collection circles, with a total capacity of up to 350μl of blood (70μl per spot). The format is fully compatible with manual and semi-automated punching systems, ensuring seamless integration with existing DBS workflows.

To protect sample integrity, the collection paper is chemically treated with a proprietary stabilizing solution. This prevents oxidative degradation of analytes and ensures accurate fatty acid profiling over extended storage periods.
