Q-Sera technology aims to accelerate the clotting of blood to more rapidly produce high quality serum in blood clotting tubes.Q-Sera Pty Ltd uses the coagulant properties of snake venom-derived proteins to develop blood collection tubes that rapidly produce high quality serum. Australian scientists have found a way to use components of snakevenom to improve an essential clinical tool which will assist in optimising laboratory efficiency, clinical diagnosis and patient care.The venom of some snakes (including the Australian Taipan) has a potent ability to coagulate the blood of mammals including humans and it is this ability which caught the interest of a group of Queensland medical scientists and pathologists. The team isolated the potent clotting proteins and used them to develop superior blood collection tubes.
