RBCs are typically drawn in a purple or lavender-top tube, which contains the anticoagulant EDTA. This type of tube is used for hematology studies and to prevent clotting of the blood sample.
The PTH (parathyroid hormone) is typically drawn into a lavender or EDTA tube for testing.
A thyroid test is typically drawn in a SST (serum separator tube), which is usually gold or red in color. The choice of tube color may vary depending on the laboratory or healthcare facility's standard practices.
The blood for IGF-1 is typically drawn in a plain red-top tube.
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) is typically drawn in a lavender/purple-top tube, which contains the anticoagulant EDTA. It is important to check with the specific laboratory or facility to confirm the correct tube color for this test.
The tube color for testing red blood cells (RBCs) is typically purple, which corresponds to a tube containing the anticoagulant ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). This additive helps to prevent clotting and preserve the integrity of the RBCs for analysis.
vanco trough is drawn in which color tube
The PTH (parathyroid hormone) is typically drawn into a lavender or EDTA tube for testing.
A thyroid test is typically drawn in a SST (serum separator tube), which is usually gold or red in color. The choice of tube color may vary depending on the laboratory or healthcare facility's standard practices.
The blood for IGF-1 is typically drawn in a plain red-top tube.
Red or lavendar
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) is typically drawn in a lavender/purple-top tube, which contains the anticoagulant EDTA. It is important to check with the specific laboratory or facility to confirm the correct tube color for this test.
red top
It could be either red top (to clot it) or Grey top (sodium fluoride or potassium oxalate added) which prevents RBC's from metabolising the glucose in the blood. There is also another one to separate the serum but I forgot the color. It might be "tiger top" or speckled.
The tube color for testing red blood cells (RBCs) is typically purple, which corresponds to a tube containing the anticoagulant ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). This additive helps to prevent clotting and preserve the integrity of the RBCs for analysis.
ANA blood is typically drawn in a purple or lavender-colored tube, which contains the anticoagulant ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to prevent clotting.
Lavender or light purple is the color typically associated with the tube top for collecting blood samples for potassium testing.
An activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test is drawn in a light blue tube. This tube contains sodium citrate as an anticoagulant to prevent blood from clotting during the test.
