The CBC is drawn in a green tube. This is blood testing tubes.
Blood for CBC is usually collected in a purple-top tube (containing EDTA).
First
vacuum tube
It all depends on what system your using. If by tube you are referring to vaccutainers (blood sample containers) then you have to check. I know that purple top (EDTA) is for the ABC CBC machine as well as a manual blood smear since you need whole blood and EDTA minimizes any distortions.
Order to draw: Multiple tube collections - YELLOW --Blood cultures ...SPS (most sterile specimen) inversion is 8-10 times, LT BLUE --contains sodium citrate inversion is 3-4 times, RED/GOLD ...SST Gel Separator tube inversion 5 times, RED --No Additives, GREEN -- (this tube is only used in Hospital draws) Heparin (blood thinner) tube inversion 8-10 times, LAVENDER/PURPLE -- EDTA (anticoagulant) tube - inversion 8-10 times, GRAY -- Oxalate Fluoride (glucose) tube inversion 8-10 times.
Red (Serum) Tube or a Gold (SST) Tube
When a tube of blood is centrifuged, erythrocytes end up on the bottom of the tube.
The general term for a tube that carries blood is blood vessel. Blood vessels include arteries, veins, and capillaries.
