Blueprint by Bryan Johnson At-Home Microplastics Blood Test Kit | Comprehensive Screening | Independently Peer Validated | Fast, Secure Results

I am so excited that there's now a test to learn levels of microplastics in my body. Now I have a baseline and can test which life modifications lower my levels. The test was easy to complete. Given that we are all creating intuitions about microplastics, here are my results: <10 μm - 5 particles 10-30 μm - 2 particles 30-70 μm - none Total Particles: 7 Calculated Concentration*: 70 P/ml based upon assumed collection of a 100μℓ sample. I am in the top 76.5th percentile for having lower levels of microplastics detected compared to other tests. We are going to win the war against microplastics.

Buyer beware!! I’ve given more than enough time and never received any results from this test at all. Never had any communication from the company either. Nothing in spam folder either. I thought this test was going to be a piece of cake to use and send off, but these lancets almost ruined the entire thing for me. For a test that's $150 I'd expect they could at least use a spring-loaded finger prick device. It instructs you to register using a QR code, and after I did, I received an image that said I successfully registered and would receive results within two weeks after they get my sample. I don't get why that step was even needed when I had to provide all that information on the card that was sent back with the blood sample already. There's no app to download; it really seemed like a totally pointless step. Back to the lancet - I ended up having to ask someone else to use it on my finger because I just couldn't do it on my own. It took more than just a drop of sample to adequately fill in the oval on the sample card. I actually didn't think I was going to be able to produce enough sample to get a good reading but eventually I did. The lancet I used caused my finger to be very sore for several hours after this test. Then I had to just let the sample sit out on the card for 30 minutes to dry. I sealed the test up and sent it back in a very basic envelope they provided, not something that looked professional or indicated it was for medical use or even that it contained biohazards inside. I took it straight to the post office and now I await the results. They don't tell you what to do with this information when you receive the results, but I hope they really provide cutting edge reports with a detailed analysis as they promise. At this point I have serious doubts; I'm not impressed at all by what seems to feel like an overpriced at home science experiment using less than professional medical grade materials. I'll update in two weeks if I get anything back from this microplastics screening test.

This is a pricy test, as most of these things are. You provide your personal information, which if you have an issue with that, then you shouldn't take any of these tests as they all require your personal information, but my information, like most people, is already out there. Of big note on this test is that it is a blood test, not hair or saliva. You have to poke yourself, possibly multiple times, to get enough for a proper sample. If this is not possible for you, then skip this product. You get in this kit, a sample card, a postage paid envelope to send your sample in to a lab in the Netherlands (yes, they provide international postage), illustrated instructions, band aids, alcohol pad, gauze pad, and lancets. You register your product online using the QR code provided. You will need to fill in only one of the five testing circles on the provided test card. This takes a bit of effort as you have to soak the circle through. I lowered the rating as the lancets they provide you with are the plain ones where you have to poke yourself. The cost of this test is enough that they should provide the spring loaded lancet. I used mine instead of theirs, so it was doable for me. I did the test, let it air dry, put it in the envelope and mailed it out. I would expect it to take some time to get results back if I do. I did check out the company online before I sent the test in.

At moment I am not sure regarding positive or negative about this test I am halfway to complete this test. I have used other product of blueprint and all those products where premium quality therefore I am not concerned regarding brand or validity of test. Once you open this blueprint fingers, part collection test package there will be a QR code that needs to be scanned and you will have to fill your demographics, I think the information they are asking is genuine because they have to send you results and inform you. It’s not like they’re asking you very detailed or secret questions and you can always use near around birthday and email that you do not Use for finance related matters, but they will need the address to report you the results back. The instructions are clear and as I work in medical field, these spot test are done in multiple other screening test like new ones screening test . Main hurdle for me to complete was the lancet that they provided. I don’t know, if I am being a chicken but in my opinion these lancets are very redundant. In the instructions, it mentions about twisting of the cap and waiting for a click, but there is nothing that this Lancer that was provided would do rather this looks like a blade. I have seen this lancet about 20 years ago in chemistry lab probably. I poked myself 2-3times but I am not able to get that volume of blood. To complete the test I cannot press the punctured area. I have saved all the needed materials for now if in near future accidentally I get some injury at the kitchen. I will use that blood out bracket not sure if this test becomes valid as I have already filled one spot out of four. Overall, I think this test is a great way for you to understand a different aspect of your health how you are exposed to micro plastic, which I am always concerned about.
