Biocept Inc (BIOC) declared receipt of a U.S. patent for its blood collection and transport preservative. The patent, entitled USE OF DIAZOLIDINYL UREA FOR ANTI-CLUMPING OF BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES, was issued as U.S. Patent No. 9,040,255.
The granted patent covers Biocept’s blood collection preservative contained in the tube for collecting patient blood used for circulating tumor cell (CTC) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) genomic analysis at Biocept. The patented collection preservative significantly reduces clumping of cells that may interfere with their capture when using microchannels and other devices for up to 96 hours, preserving specimen integrity in order to allow Biocept to perform testing for patients worldwide. Other preservatives for blood are limited to 24 hours, therefore compromising the ability to offer many types of testing globally. This patent further expands the intellectual property protection of the tools Biocept uses for its liquid biopsy analysis.
