  • Publication number: 20180242895
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for collecting a bodily fluid sample of a subject for nucleic acid amplification, a method for collecting a bodily fluid sample of a subject for nucleic acid amplification, and a kit for nucleic acid amplification. The device may comprise a device body that is coupled to at least one collection channel including a collection member having an opening at an end thereof to permit flow of the bodily fluid sample from a source thereof to the collection channel. The collection channel may be substantially free of an anticoagulant. The device may further comprise a mechanical member coupled to the device body. The mechanical member may actuate the collection member to (i) extend away from the collection channel for collection of the bodily fluid sample from the source thereof, and (ii) retract into the collection channel upon collection of the sample.
