Analytes: These tubes are used for measuring analytes such as glucose, lactate, and blood alcohol.
Specimen: The specimen obtained from these tubes for testing is plasma, due to the presence of an anticoagulant that prevents clotting.
Application: Its primary application is in the collection of blood for tests requiring accurate glucose or lactate level determination by preventing glycolysis, especially when analysis might be delayed, and for blood alcohol measurement, though it's unsuitable for certain enzymatic assays.
Description: Typically, this is a glass or PET plastic tube identifiable by a grey-colored cap, occasionally featuring a white ring, and it comes in various draw volumes and sizes.
Contents: The tube contains sodium fluoride, which acts as an antiglycolytic agent, along with an anticoagulant, commonly potassium oxalate or EDTA, and sometimes sodium heparin.
