🎙️ WEBINAR ALERT

Decentralized Urine Sampling with Capitainer®DIP70

June 16, 2026
1:00 PM ET | 10:00 AM PT | 07:00 PM CEST

Traditional urine sampling can involve challenges such as sample leakage, handling of liquid samples, and complex logistics.

Join our upcoming webinar to learn more about Capitainer®DIP70 and how volumetric dried urine sampling can support decentralized testing workflows.

We will also present the performance of Capitainer®DIP70 exemplified with Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (ACR) on different automated Clinical Chemistry Platforms.

🧠 New Publication in Nature Communications

A new publication in Nature Communications further validates the use of remote capillary blood sampling for Alzheimer’s disease biomarker testing.

The study demonstrates that remotely self-collected blood samples can be used to measure biomarkers associated with cognitive decline and function in older adults, supporting the potential of remote sampling in real-world settings.

In both this study and the previously published DROP-AD study, blood samples were collected using Capitainer® volumetric microsampling cards.

📍 Capitainer at SFKK 2026 

In the beginning of May, Mikael Ström, Mathias Karlsson, and Johan Olausson attended SFKK’s Vårmöte Klinisk Kemi 2026.

It was great to meet so many people from the field — and especially exciting to see several posters featuring our technology presented during the conference.

For our Swedish-speaking readers, posters from the conference can be found here.
