Disposable Plasma collection Citrate Tube blue caps

Plasma collection Citrate Tube blue caps

The plasma collection tube ensures that blood samples are not contaminated or differentiated for medical analysis. After centrifugation, Celeste Capa CY-106SC tubes with sizes of 13 x 75 mm and 13 x 100 mm (chosen by the user) containing 3.8% sodium citrate can be used to effectively separate plasma from blood cells. There are five types of plasma tubes: 3.2% sodium citrate coagulation tube with a cap, 3.8% sodium citrate coagulation tube with a cap, heparin sodium tube with a green cap, lithium heparin tube with a green cap, sodium fluoride tube, and anticoagulant tube with a gray cap.

This tube is used to obtain plasma for measuring coagulation function. It contains a sodium citrate buffer solution with a concentration of 3.8% (0.129mol/L) or

3.2% (0.109mol/L). This mixture ensures a ratio of 9:1 for sodium citrate. This anticoagulant is a stable substance that not only controls bacterial limits, but also makes APTT testing safe under good conditions.

Storage: Unless otherwise specified on the packaging label, store the tube at 4-25 º C.

Expiration date: 18 months

Suggested extraction order:

1. Aseptic sample tube.
2. Coagulation research tubes (such as citrate).
3. Serum collection tube.
4. Tubes containing other additives such as heparin, EDTA, and fluoride.

Matters needing attention:

1. Follow universal preventive measures. Use gloves, gowns, eye protection, and other personal protective equipment, as well as engineering control measures, to protect oneself from blood splashes and leaks, as well as potential exposure to blood-borne pathogens.
2. Process all biological samples and blood collection puncture items (willow leaf knives, needles, connection adapters, and blood collection components) in accordance with its center’s policies and procedures. If you come into contact with any biological samples (such as after puncture), please obtain appropriate medical care, because they may spread viral hepatitis, HIV infection (AIDS), or other infectious diseases. Use an integrated needle protector.
3. Throw all sharp blood collection items into the approved biohazardous material container for disposal.
4. It is not recommended to transfer samples extracted through syringes and needles into tubes. Extra handling of punctured objects, such as needles with internal cavities, increases the possibility of an accidental puncture.
5. For the following reasons, caution should be exercised when transferring samples from the syringe to the vacuum sampling tube using nonpuncture devices. Pressing the syringe plunger during the transfer process will generate positive pressure, forcing the plunger and sample to move, resulting in splashing and exposure to the blood using a syringe to transfer blood may also lead to overfilling or underfilling of the tube, resulting in an incorrect ratio of blood to additives and the possibility of obtaining incorrect analysis results The design of vacuum connections is to extract a specified volume. When the vacuum extraction stops, the filling is complete, although some tubes can be partially filled when filled with a syringe due to the resistance of the plunger. The use of these samples should be consulted with the laboratory.
6. If blood is collected through veins (IV), please ensure that the venous solution channel is clean before starting to fill the blood collection tube. This is crucial for avoiding erroneous laboratory data caused by liquid IV contamination.
7. Uncontrolled endotoxins. The blood and blood components collected and processed in the tube are not intended for infusion or introduction into the human body.
8. Do not write or cover the barcode area, as sample recognition may be affected.
