What else can I help you with?
What does the the SST tube contain plasma or serum after processing?
An SST tube will contain serum once its been centrifuged. SST stands for serum separator tube. It will separate the serum from the other blood components.
What color blood tube for serum ferritin blood levels?
A gold-top tube is typically used to collect blood for serum ferritin testing.
What tube is classified as a serum separator tube?
red tube
Which color tube do you use for serum creatinine?
For serum creatinine, the recommended tube to use is a red-top tube without any anticoagulant. This allows for the blood to clot and the serum to be separated.
What color tube do you collect for Titers?
For titers, blood can be collected in a red-top tube (serum separator tube) or a gold-top tube (serum separator tube with gel). The serum is then separated from the blood cells by centrifugation and used for the titer test.
Serum seperator tube?
A serum separator tube is a type of blood collection tube that contains a gel at the bottom to separate blood cells from serum during centrifugation. After spinning, the gel forms a barrier between the serum and the blood cells, making it easier to collect and analyze the serum for various tests.
Which tube will yield serum?
A serum separator tube (SST) typically yields serum after centrifugation. It contains a gel barrier that separates the serum from the clot during the centrifugation process, allowing for easy collection of the serum layer.
What does SST blood tube stand for?
SST blood tube stands for serum separator tube. It contains a gel that separates the serum from other blood components after centrifugation, making it easier to collect and test the serum.
What does the sst top tube contain plasma or serum after processing?
The sst top tube typically contains serum after processing because the clot activator in the tube separates the serum from the blood cells. Plasma is obtained from tubes with anticoagulants that prevent clot formation.
What color tube is use for albumin?
serum,tiger tube
What color tube does a vancomycin trough tube go in?
Yellow or serum tube
What does the gel in the SST tube do?
The gel in the SST (serum separator tube) tube separates serum from the clot after centrifugation. This helps to obtain clear serum for diagnostic testing by preventing cells and clotting factors from interfering with the analysis.
