Evacuated Blood Collection Tubes – Safe & Reliable Blood Sampling

These evacuated blood collection tubes are offered in several additive and plain-tube options for professional sample collection. Select the tube specified by your laboratory's test requirements and the supplied manufacturer's instructions.

Organize the required tube types at the collection station, checking each label rather than relying on cap colour alone.

Selectable tube types

• Red Clot Activator (Red).
• Fluoride Oxalate (Glucose) (Grey).
• ESR (1.6 mL) (Black).
• Gel & Clot Activator (Yellow).
• EDTA (Purple).
• Sodium Citrate (Blue).
• Lithium Heparin (Green).
• Plain (Red).

Selection and compatibility

Cap colours and additive names are the listed option labels. Confirm additive formulation, intended test, required fill volume and compatibility with your collection system and analyser. The Plain and Clot Activator options share a Red label but are distinct selections.

Specifications to confirm

Only the ESR option specifies a 1.6 mL volume. Other draw volumes, tube dimensions, PET or glass construction, pack count, sterility documentation and expiry details are not provided. Confirm these from the supplied packaging before purchase and use. Evacuation does not guarantee an exact draw volume under every collection condition.

Professional handling

For trained personnel following approved collection procedures. Follow the manufacturer's fill, mixing, storage and processing instructions. Check packaging integrity and expiry before use, and do not reuse collection tubes. Leakproof and break-resistant performance is not documented. Handle and dispose of blood-contaminated materials under your facility's procedures.
