Light blue is typically the color of the tube used for coagulation profiles. It contains sodium citrate as an anticoagulant to prevent blood from clotting during testing.
Light blue tube with sodium citrate additive is used for bleeding and coagulation studies as it helps to prevent blood from clotting by binding calcium.
A gold or tiger-top tube is typically used for a lipid profile test.
You would typically use a light blue-top tube containing sodium citrate for coagulation testing. This type of tube is used to prevent blood from clotting by binding calcium ions, which are essential for the coagulation process. It is important to fill the tube to the proper fill line to maintain the correct blood-to-anticoagulant ratio.
A citrate tube used for blood drawing is usually light blue in color. This tube contains sodium citrate, which is an anticoagulant used for coagulation studies.

A citrate tube used for blood drawing is usually light blue in color. This tube contains sodium citrate, which is an anticoagulant used for coagulation studies.
A green-top tube containing lithium heparin or a red-top tube without anticoagulant are commonly used for collecting blood samples for a chemistry profile.
A gold or red/gray tiger-striped tube is typically used for lipid profile testing.
Blue top tube which contains citrate.
The color tube used for FDP (Fibrin Degradation Products) testing is typically a light blue top tube, which contains sodium citrate as an anticoagulant. This tube is used for coagulation studies to prevent blood from clotting.
A lavender or pink top tube is typically used for a PT (prothrombin time) test. This is the color used for collecting samples for coagulation studies.
A light blue tube typically requires a 1.9 ratio of anticoagulant to blood. This tube is often used for coagulation studies.
A lavender/purple top tube is typically used for an iron profile test. This tube contains the anticoagulant EDTA, which helps to preserve the sample for accurate testing of iron levels in the blood.
