    Abstract: A method for preserving and processing nucleic acids located within a blood sample is disclosed, wherein a blood sample containing nucleic acids is treated to reduce both blood cell lysis and nuclease activity within the blood sample. The treatment of the sample aids in increasing the integrity and amount of cellular nucleic acids that can be identified and tested while avoiding contamination of the isolated nucleic acids with cell -free nucleic acids. The preferred compositions for preserving and processing contain diazolidinyl urea (DU), EDTA, aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA), glyceraldehyde and sodium floride.

    Abstract: The present teachings relate to a method of making a biological sample collection container, an internally coated biological sample collection container, and uses of the same, particularly for omic analysis. A reagent (or a reagent precursor) is deposited in a liquid state at least partially along at least one side wall of the container. The reagent precursor is dried to form a dried coating having a predefined pattern and topology along at least a portion of the at least one side wall. A container thus results having a coating that includes, in a dried state, a stabilizer agent, or reaction product of a stabilizer agent and an anticoagulant, and upon collection of a sample enables stabilization of any present white blood cells, cell-free nucleic acids, extracellular vesicles, circulating tumor cells, proteins, metabolites, lipids, or any combination thereof, and preserving them in sufficient quantity and quality for omic analysis.
