The tube for creatine kinase typically comes in a red or gold top tube. There is typically no additive required for creatine kinase testing as the serum or plasma is used directly for analysis.
The tube commonly used for HIV testing is a lavender-top tube, which contains the anticoagulant additive EDTA. This additive helps to preserve the blood sample and prevent clotting during transportation and processing.
The color of test tube typically used for blood cultures is a yellow tube with an SPS (sodium polyanetholsulfonate) additive. This additive helps prevent the blood sample from clotting and maintains the viability of microorganisms in the sample for culture.
A gray tube is typically used for a glucose tolerance test. This tube contains sodium fluoride as an additive to preserve glucose levels in the blood sample.
A gold or yellow test tube is commonly used for ferritin testing.

It is not recommended to place a hot test tube directly into a test tube rack as this can cause damage to both the test tube and the rack. It is advised to allow the test tube to cool down before placing it in the rack to prevent any accidents or mishaps.
The color of the top tube for HgA1C blood test is lavender. This type of tube contains EDTA as an anticoagulant additive to prevent blood coagulation.
The recommended tube color for collecting blood samples for AST or ALT tests is a plain red top tube without any additive. This allows for serum separation.
tube color for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone test is the gold tube for chemistry testing.
