Serum Blood Collection Tubes BD 367812 Vacutainer Plus Clot Activator 13 X 75mm 4 mL, Red
BD Vacutainer Plus Serum Blood Collection Tubes are a type of medical device used for collecting and storing blood for diagnostic tests. These Serum Blood Collection Tubes are specifically designed for serum separation and are coated with a clot activator which helps to accelerate the clotting process in the blood sample, resulting in a faster and more efficient separation of serum from the whole blood. The tubes have a size of 13 X 75mm and can hold a volume of 4 mL of blood. They are commonly used in medical settings and laboratories for various types of blood tests and are considered a standard method for collecting serum samples.

- Sterile vacuum blood collection tubes for serum determination
- Spray-coated silica interior

Evacuated Tubes Simplify Blood Collection
- Blood is drawn directly from the vein into the evacuated sterile collection tubes
- Only one venipuncture is needed to draw multiple samples
- Tubes can be changed while needle and plastic holder remain in place on patient's arm
- Closures are color coded
Plastic Evacuated Tubes
- Made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)
- Provide a safer work environment for all personnel by (1) reducing risk of tube breakage during handling; (2) eliminating breakage when tubes are centrifuged at higher speeds; and (3) eliminating breakage or chipping of tube rims when stopper is removed and reinserted
- In addition to reducing potential injuries, fewer tube breakages result in less workflow interruption and fewer patient redraws, providing smoother day-to-day operation
Hemogard™ Stoppers
- Safety shield designed for safer tube handling
- Rubber stopper is recessed inside the plastic shield, so any drops left by a blood collection needle remain isolated from potential contact
- Shield is designed to protect lab personnel from direct contact with blood on the stopper or around the outer rim of the tube, as well as from blood splattering upon opening the tube.
