Heparin Blood Collection Tube

Product Highlights

• Sodium heparin and lithium heparin are listed as distinct additive options
• Transparent tube body for sample inspection
• No separator gel in the listed heparin-only configurations

Structure & Functional Design

Heparin acts as an anticoagulant. The sodium and lithium salts are separate product choices rather than interchangeable labels. These heparin-only tubes do not contain a plasma separator gel; confirm the additive salt and specimen requirements for the intended test.

Applications

For clinical chemistry or other laboratory methods that specifically accept heparinized plasma or whole blood. Select the heparin salt in accordance with the assay instructions, including any restrictions associated with the analyte being measured.

• Handle used tubes and blood specimens as potentially infectious and dispose of them according to laboratory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should sodium or lithium heparin be selected?

Use the additive salt required by the laboratory method and assay instructions. Do not substitute one solely because the cap color is similar.

Is this a heparin gel tube?

No. The listed configurations are heparin-only tubes. A heparin-plus-gel product would require a separate verified specification.
