to prevent the red blood cells from digesting the glucose in the sample, true or false?
FBS (fetal bovine serum) is typically collected in a red-top tube or a serum separator tube (SST) with a red-gray or gold-red-colored cap. Once collected, the tube is centrifuged to separate the serum from the blood cells.
SST separated tube
The haptoglobin test is typically collected in a red-top tube, which does not contain any additives. Alternatively, it can also be collected in a serum separator tube (SST).

SST tube contains serum. Serum is the liquid component of blood that remains after blood has clotted, while plasma is the liquid component of blood that contains clotting factors and is obtained from blood collected in tubes containing anticoagulant.
SST Records was created in 1966.
A red color in the serum of a serum separator tube (SST) may indicate hemolysis, which is the rupture of red blood cells and release of hemoglobin into the serum. Hemolysis can affect certain laboratory test results and may require a new blood sample to be collected for accurate testing.
SST stands for Supersonic Transport, a type of airplane.
There is no H770-sst just the H770-SS which has a SST tank assembly.
The Chem 7 test is collected in a red-top tube. This tube contains no anticoagulant and allows for the blood sample to clot, which is necessary for obtaining serum for testing.
The tubes used for fasting glucose is the SST tubes. The tubes are clear in color. The stoppers for the tubes are gold and red gray in color. The tubes contain a gel inside for separating the blood.
