Our TokuKits enable the on-site collection and fixation of whole blood samples from clinical trials, preparing them for analysis by high-dimensional mass cytometry or spectral flow cytometry. However, ordering and tracking specimen collection kits have been challenging due to the reliance on manual emails and spreadsheets. To address this, we are excited to announce the launch of our new online ordering system for TokuKits: teiko.bio/tokukit/.
When an order is placed online, it is immediately registered in Teiko’s Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). This allows us to promptly contact the trial site that placed the order. We additionally keep the clinical trial manager and study sponsor informed. Now everyone is informed about the kits ordered and shipped to all clinical trial sites.
It might seem obvious, but ordering and tracking kits through emails and spreadsheets is cumbersome, error-prone, and a major headache. Surprisingly, this is a common practice for ordering kits for clinical trials. Without a standardized process, the back-and-forth to collect information delays order fulfillment, preventing critical sample collections from taking place for the clinical trial.
We’ve built a web-based ordering platform, directly coupled to our LIMS to deliver a customer ordering experience that’s centralized, easy to use, informative, and connected to each site using TokuKits in a clinical trial.
In the gif below, we show how to order kits from teiko.bio/tokukit/. We’ll charge them directly to your sponsor account, no credit card needed. This allows you to place kit orders, and allows us to obtain information about the site, and clinical trials. We then collect shipping information. With this information we send tracking information and share the data with both the person who placed the order, the study sponsor and clinical trial manager.
