Description
The Vacutainer Serum Separation Tube is a specialized blood collection tube engineered to ensure efficient and reliable serum specimen preparation. It incorporates a clot activator to promote rapid coagulation and a polymer gel that effectively separates serum from cells during centrifugation. This results in a clear, stable serum layer ideal for diagnostic testing.
Constructed from durable plastic, the tube measures 16 x 100 mm and has a volume capacity of 8.5 mL, making it suitable for a wide range of routine and specialized laboratory tests. The red and gray closure provides an easy visual reference for identification and workflow organization in high-throughput laboratory settings. The closure ensures a secure, airtight seal to prevent contamination or leakage.
The integrated polymer gel forms a barrier between the serum and cellular components after centrifugation, minimizing the risk of cellular metabolism affecting serum analytes. This contributes to improved accuracy and stability of results for biochemical, serological, and immunological assays. The clot activator expedites the clotting process, typically within 30 minutes, allowing for timely processing of specimens.
