AUTODRAW (TASSO) OVERVIEW
The AutoDraw (Tasso) device is a small, wearable blood collection tool designed to make the process of drawing blood easier, more comfortable, and less intimidating than traditional blood collection methods.
The Tasso device uses gentle vacuum pressure and a tiny lancet to collect a small sample of capillary blood from the upper arm. It is painless, non-invasive, and easy to use at home.
TAKING THE TEST - HOW IT WORKS
Application: The device is a compact, single-use patch that is attached to the upper arm using a soft, skin-friendly medical adhesive.
Collection: You press the red button and a small sterile lancet briefly pierces the skin and instantly withdraws. A mild vacuum then draws the blood sample into an integrated collection tube.
Process: The tube generally fills within approximately 5 minutes. Once complete, remove the patch and send the collection tube back to use for analysis.

HOW TO POST THE SAMPLE BACK TO THE LABORATORY
You need to send the collected sample back to our laboratory, the same day, before 12:00, in a pre-paid envelope. Take it to the post office as increasingly the post boxes are not emptied every day.
Your sample will come back to us via Royal Mail Tracked 24 (please take it to the Post Office before 12:00).
If you drop it off at a post box - it will (most likely) not get to us the next day. So please take it to the post office in the morning, right after you finished taking the sample.
If the sample is delayed and your blood is unsuitable for testing - we will send you one more kit, free of charge, so you can order with confidence.
WHEN WILL YOUR SAMPLE BE PROCESSED
We aim to start testing all of your blood the same day we receive it in the lab. However, there are some biomarkers that require a little preparation, these will be ready in accordance with their turnaround time.
Please make sure that you look at the turnaround time for your test before contacting us.
MHRA REGULATED IVD BLOOD COLLECTION KIT
We put a lot of clinical research into the kit - your sample will arrive to us in the best condition possible.
Our kit was meticulously designed by our clinical team and registered as an IVD medical device with the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
Whilst there are quite a few generic kits on the market, none of them did what we wanted our kit to do - keep the sample preserved for as long as possible and allow you to easily collect the sample in the first place. So we designed and built our own.
WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BLOOD SAMPLE IN OUR LABORATORY?
FAST AND ACCURATE BLOOD TEST RESULTS MEANS CONVENIENCE AND RELIABILITY
Book a test and get results, it's that simple. No appointment, no GP referral and a huge range of routine and specialised testing available to you at a click of a button.
These are the same tests that your GP would order, tested in the same CQC registered and UKAS accredited diagnostics laboratory in the UK. In fact, it is run in our own laboratory.
We do not outsource the most important part of the test, the testing itself, to anyone. Your sample will be analysed in our own accredited laboratory that we operate in-house and therefore take full responsibility for in terms of accuracy and reliability.
All of our testing is independently monitored and verified by the Biorad Diagnostics Laboratory External Quality Assessment Scheme in the UK (EQAS). This is very similar to "mystery shopper" that you would have heard of, no doubt. For every single test that we do we are continuously send a random sample with values known to EQAS but unknown to the lab. We analyse it the same way as we would any other sample and send it back to EQAS. We have to be accurate, every time.
