This white paper highlights some of the factors to consider when collecting, storing, and handling human blood samples for use in protein biomarker studies. This article will discuss that while proteins are more sensitive than DNA in terms of potential pre-analytical factors, taking some basic precautions and documenting your sample-handling procedures should result in a successful outcome. The white paper draws on both the published literature and Olink’s experience in analyzing hundreds of thousands of samples over the past few years.
