To indicate a presence of free residual oxygen.
A green-top tube (heparin) is typically used for collecting blood samples for an electrolyte panel.
The laboratory tube color typically used for collecting blood samples for an electrolyte panel is a green-top tube that contains lithium heparin as the anticoagulant. The green color indicates that it is suitable for collecting samples for various chemistry tests, including electrolyte measurements.

The color of the tube for electrolyte testing is typically green.
A green top tube (containing lithium heparin or sodium heparin) is typically used for drawing blood for electrolyte testing. The anticoagulants in these tubes help preserve the sample for accurate testing.
The tube color commonly used for collecting blood for electrolyte testing is a green-top tube, which contains lithium heparin as an anticoagulant. The green-top tube helps preserve the integrity of the sample for accurate electrolyte measurements.
The lavender top tube contains EDTA anticoagulant which can bind to calcium ions, affecting electrolyte results. Drawing a lavender tube before electrolytes can lead to falsely decreased calcium levels and potentially inaccurate electrolyte results. It is recommended to draw the lavender tube after the electrolyte tube to prevent any interference.
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 lytes panel typically requires a green or lavender top tube as it needs to be collected in a tube with an anticoagulant. This is to prevent the blood from clotting and altering the electrolyte concentrations being measured in the sample.
The recommended color tube for drawing an A1C blood test is lavender.
The color-topped evacuated tube typically used for the collection of blood for electrolyte testing is a green-top tube, which contains heparin as an anticoagulant. Heparin prevents clotting and ensures accurate testing of electrolyte levels in the blood.
