19、ion Molecular in vitro diagnostics has enabled a significant progress in medicine. Further progress is expected by new technologies analyzing signatures of nucleic acids, proteins, and metabolites in human tissues and body fluids. However, the profiles of these molecules can change drastically durin

20、g primary sample collection, transport, storage, and processing thus making the outcome from diagnostics or research unreliable or even impossible because the subsequent analytical assay will not determine the situation in the patient but an artificial profile generated during the pre-examination pr

21、ocess. Therefore, a standardization of the entire process from sample collection to RNA analysis is needed. Studies have been undertaken to determine the important influencing factors. This Technical Specification draws upon such work to codify and standardize the steps for venous whole blood cellul

22、ar RNA analysis in what is referred to as the preanalytical phase. PD CEN/TS 16835-1:2015CEN/TS 16835-1:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Specification recommends the handling, documentation and processing of venous whole blood specimens intended for cellular RNA analysis during the preanalytical ph

23、ase before a molecular assay is performed. This Technical Specification covers specimens collected by venous whole blood collection tubes. This Technical Specification is applicable to molecular in vitro diagnostic examinations (e.g. in vitro diagnostic laboratories, laboratory customers, in vitro d

24、iagnostics developers and manufacturers, institutions and commercial organizations performing biomedical research, biobanks, and regulatory authorities). Blood cellular RNA profiles can change significantly after collection. Therefore, special measures need to be taken to secure good quality blood s

25、amples for cellular RNA analysis and storage. Different dedicated measures need to be taken for stabilizing blood cell free circulating RNA and RNA in exosomes circulating in blood, which are not described in this Technical Specification. Different dedicated measures need to be taken for collecting,

26、 stabilizing, transporting and storing capillary blood as well as for collecting and storing blood by paper based technologies. These are not described in this Technical Specification. RNA in pathogens present in blood is not covered by this Technical Specification. 2 Normative references The follow

37、 Consumables including kits shall be verified before use in examination (see EN ISO 15189:2012, 5.3.2.3); EN ISO 15189:2012, 5.5.1.2 and 5.5.1.3 can also apply. As all steps of a diagnostic workflow can influence the final analytical performance, the entire workflow comprising the preanalytical step

38、s, including information on sample stability and storage conditions, and the analytical steps should be verified and validated (see EN ISO 15189). PD CEN/TS 16835-1:2015CEN/TS 16835-1:2015 (E) 7 Blood cellular RNA profiles can change significantly after collection (e.g. gene induction, gene down reg

39、ulation, RNA degradation) 3, 4, 5, 6. These changes can vary individually in different blood donors / patients blood 3, 7, 8, 9, 10. The stability of the specific blood cellular RNA profile of interest should be investigated throughout the complete preanalytical workflow. Before or during the design

40、 of the analytical test system it should be investigated and ensured that the specific blood cellular RNA molecule/s amount/s intended to be analyzed in the analytical test is/are not affected by the envisioned entire preanalytical workflow. If a commercial product is not used in accordance with the

41、 manufacturers instructions, responsibility for its validation, verification, use and performance lies with the user. Safety regulations on transport and handling shall be considered (EN ISO 15189:2012, 5.4.5 and ISO 15190). 5 Outside the laboratory 5.1 Primary venous whole blood collection manual 5

42、.1.1 Information about the primary sample donor The documentation should include, but is not limited to: a) the primary donor / patient ID, which can be in the form of a code; b) the health status and relevant lifestyle factors of the blood donor (e.g. healthy, disease type, diet, gender, age); c) t

43、he information about medical treatment and special treatment prior to blood collection (e.g. anaesthetics, medications, fasting status); d) the type and purpose of the analytical test requested. See also EN ISO 15189:2012, 5.4.4. 5.1.2 Selection of the venous blood collection tube by the laboratory

44、Due to the high instability of blood cellular RNA profiles in individual patients/donors 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, commercially available blood collection tubes containing blood cellular RNA profile stabilizers should be used 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 (Figure A.1). Blood collection tubes not containing any blood cellu

45、lar RNA profile stabilizer should only be used, if the specific blood cellular RNA molecule or the blood cellular RNA profile to be analyzed is stable after blood draw (Figure A.2) or if the requested analytical test allows the use of such tubes. 5.1.3 Primary venous whole blood collection from the

46、patient and stabilization procedures 1. The identity of the person collecting the sample and the time of blood collection according to EN ISO 15189:2012, 5.4.4.3, f) shall be documented. 2. For the labelling (sample identification) of the blood collection tube a routine procedure (EN ISO 15189:2012,

47、 5.4.4.3, e) or a procedure with additional information (e.g. 2D-barcode) shall be used. 3. Standard venepuncture technique can be used. Steps for preventing possible backflow may be required. The manufacturers instructions for using the blood collection tubes shall be followed. A PD CEN/TS 16835-1:

48、2015CEN/TS 16835-1:2015 (E) 8 blood collection set and needle holder can be required when using blood cellular RNA profile stabilizer containing tubes. In this case, the instructions of the collection set and needle holder manufacturer shall be followed. NOTE There is no known specific effect of ven

49、ous whole blood draw procedure on the cellular RNA. Routine procedures can therefore be used. 4. Blood collection tubes shall be filled in accordance to the manufacturers instructions and attention should be drawn to the correct positioning of the collection tube during the blood draw as well as the required volume. 5. Blood collection tube manufacturers instructions, for mixing or inverting the tube immediately after blood collection, shall be followed. NOTE Unless additives are homogenously mixed with the blo
