Plasma minus clotting proteins is called serum. Serum is the liquid portion of blood that remains after blood has clotted and the clotting factors have been removed. Serum is used in various medical tests to measure different components in the blood.
Serum is generally free from blood cellular components but when collecting serum sometimes few cells will be pipetted with the serum & that is the only source of DNA in the serum.
how can you test for any toxity in blood serum or serum tears.
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.
