Serum Tubes with Gel and Clot Activator
Serum collection and laboratory testing involve various medical devices, including serum tubes with gel and clot activator, which are specially designed for hormone, microbiology, and biochemistry tests. Each diagnostic test requires a specific type of tube, differentiated by cap color, volume, and internal structure to optimize accuracy and results.
These tubes contain an inert gel that separates serum from blood cells immediately after collection, allowing the serum to be used for analysis without delay. The gel acts as a physical barrier between the blood cells and serum once centrifuged.
Key Features and Volumes
Serum gel tubes are widely used in immunology laboratories to diagnose immune-related conditions and in biochemistry labs for precise blood testing. The clot activator in the tube promotes rapid clotting, and the gel separatorensures clean serum isolation.
Manufactured in various volumes
Color-coded (typically yellow or red caps)
Single-use, vacuum-sealed
Sterile and biocompatible
Storage Guidelines
Proper storage is essential to maintain the accuracy of test results. If a sample is not analyzed within 2 hours, it must be stored at -40°C. If this is not feasible, -20°C is acceptable for up to 24 hours.
Essential Medical Supplies for Blood Collection
While the serum tube is the primary component, several additional tools must be used to ensure successful sample collection:
Alcohol-based or alcohol-free disinfectant
Sterile gloves
Gauze or cotton pads
Holder and needles
Tourniquet
Blood collection set or butterfly needle
Adhesive bandages
Correct type of vacuum blood collection tube according to the test
Cooling items like ice packs when required
