RedYYellow serum separator tube or green lithium heparin tube
You use the tiger top tube also known as as serum separator tube can be used to obtain blood serum and it can be used to run specialized tests on that serum.
Green (sodium/lithium heparin) or yellow/red a serum separator tube.
Assuming that BMP stands for a Basic Metabolic Panel, the tube most commonly used in testing is a gold top or (serum separator tube).
SST Tube stands for "Serum Separator Tube"This is a gel and clot activator tube that is used for clinical biochemistry and immunology. Inside the tube, there is a barrier gel present at the bottom, which is a pure substance, very stable in physical and chemical features. Even under a high temperature, the barrier will not change inside at all. After centrifugation, the barrier can effectively separate the serum from fibrin and cell, while preventing substance exchange between blood cell and serum.
red tube
its a tiger top tube. its to separate plasma to blood.

An SST tube will contain serum once its been centrifuged. SST stands for serum separator tube. It will separate the serum from the other blood components.

Green (sodium/lithium heparin) or yellow/red a serum separator tube.
Serum Separator Tube (SST ™') for serum determinations in chemistry and serology. Contains separator gel and should not be used for toxicology or drug testing. Inversions ensure mixing of clot activator with blood. Blood clotting time 30 minutes.
There is no order of draw. A comprehensive metabolic panel is just one tube, an SST or serum separator tube.
Assuming that BMP stands for a Basic Metabolic Panel, the tube most commonly used in testing is a gold top or (serum separator tube).
SST stands for serum separator tube, the typical marble top tube used to collect many blood samples.
