Golden Vac™ Blue-Top Blood Tubes – Advanced Anticoagulation for Coagulation Testing
Specially Designed Double-Walled Tubes with Sodium Citrate for Accurate Coagulation and Prothrombin Time Analysis
Product Overview
Golden VacTM blue-top blood tubes specially designed with double walls are made of PP
(polypropylene) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate). PP is ideal for sensitive coagulation parameters due to its nonreactive characteristics. The inner tube is made of PP and prevents the evaporation of liquid. The outer tube is made of PET and ensures a long shelf-life for the vacuum.
Description
Sodium citrate is used as anticoagulant to prevent blood from clotting. Filled with a buffered sodium citrate solution in a concentration of 0.109mol/L (3.2%).
The blood to additive ratio is 9:1. The ratio of blood to
anticoagulant is critical for valid prothrombin time results.
Immediately after draw, gently invert the tube 3-4 times in
order to activate adequate anticoagulant.
Centrifugation: 2000-2500 g for 10-15 minutes at 18-25° C.
