purple top tube isn't the norm for T4 test but it may not hurt the results. This tube contains EDTA which is a chemical that hinder clotting. However, it still may dilute the specimen by a few microliters and should be considered by the phlebotomist.

red top tube should be used for extra accuracy, however, blood result within any human being can be changed that micro.. within seconds from another specimen that is drawn. All calibrations on machines almost never form the same results even on the same specimen.

Why are they reluctant to do the thyroid T4 test?

The old Total T4 test (TT4) is no longer considered the best way to test for T4 levels. T4 and T3 can both be bound by other proteins and hormones in the body. When this happens, the T4 or T3 is not usable by the body. The body can only use T4 and T3 that is not bound, or free. For this reason, Free T4, which only tests the free levels of the hormone, is now preferred over Total T4 testing as more accurate.
