Published purpose

Verv has identified a need for a method to obtain whole blood using a device that is simple to use by an unskilled consumer (user) and will yield up to 120-150ul of whole blood. This device must then be able to transfer the collected blood to Verv's novel Vi Home Health Monitor. Specifically, the collected blood must transfer with ease to Verv's Vi chip device which contains a column where further reactions occur that separate blood plasma from whole blood in an efficient and fast manner.
