A lavender or purple top tube is typically used to collect a CPK (Creatine Phosphokinase) blood test.
Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is typically collected in a red-top tube for serum or a green-top tube for plasma.
The tube for CPK (creatine phosphokinase) isoenzymes is typically red or gold, depending on the laboratory.
The CPK color convention for test tubes typically assigns carbon with the color black, oxygen with red, and nitrogen with blue.
The Labcorp tube color for creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is typically red or gold, depending on the specific type of test being conducted. It is best to confirm with the laboratory or consult the test requisition form for the exact tube color required.

CPK (Corey-Pauling-Koltun) coloring refers to a specific color scheme used to represent atoms in molecules, where carbon is typically shown in black, oxygen in red, nitrogen in blue, and other elements in various colors like white, green, or pink. A CPK color code is often used with molecular models or in scientific illustrations to visually represent different atoms within a molecule.
The color of the tube that is most often used for hematology CBC tests are
For a HgA1c you would need a lavender top tube.
The color of tube used for ferritin is typically gold or red/gray.

CPK means creatine phosphokinase. It's sometimes abbreviated CK. CPK testing is often used to evaluate chest pain.
The color of the tube commonly used for CBC (Complete Blood Count) is lavender or purple.
