A grey tube typically contains blood samples that are collected for laboratory testing. The grey top tube contains an additive called sodium fluoride and potassium oxalate, which are used to preserve glucose levels in the blood sample.
EDTA test tube (Lavender top) for CBC etc. Heparinized test tube (Green top) for CD4 and absolute lymphocyte count Sodium floride(Grey top) for sugar test.
FBS stands for Fasting Blood Sugar level and is drawn to Flox ( grey top) tube. It can also be collected into SST tube.
If a grey stopper tube is collected before a lavender shield tube, contamination from the additives in the grey stopper tube may lead to inaccurate results in the lavender shield tube, especially for analytes sensitive to contamination or carryover effects. It is important to follow the recommended order of draw during blood collection to prevent such issues.
Gray top tube (GTT) is typically used for glucose tolerance test.

yes.
Gray top tube (GTT) is typically used for glucose tolerance test.
It is a glass tube and it is used to contain substances being tested!
The tube stations on the London Underground that contain the letters in "Breakfast" are: Baker Street, Farringdon, and Stratford.
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.
The three tubes that contain plasma are the red-top tube, green-top tube, and lavender-top tube. Plasma is the liquid component of blood that does not contain cells and is obtained by spinning down a blood sample in the presence of an anticoagulant.
Red
The tube will not contain lots of air
