BD Vacutainer Lithium Heparin 10 mL Blood Collection Tubes 16mm x 100mm, 100/box
BD Vacutainer Lithium Heparin 10 mL Blood Collection Tubes are a type of blood collection tube used for collecting and storing venous blood samples. They are manufactured by BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) and are designed to be used with Vacutainer Blood Collection systems. Each tube has a capacity of 10 mL and measures 16mm in diameter and 100mm in length. These tubes contain lithium heparin, a type of anticoagulant, which is used to prevent clotting of the blood sample during collection and storage. This allows for accurate and reliable testing of the blood sample. The tubes also have a color-coded cap to indicate the type of additive and are sterile to ensure the safety and integrity of the blood sample.
BD Vacutainer® Plastic Heparin Tubes are used for plasma determinations in chemistry. These tubes have lithium heparin spray-coated at inner surface. Tube inversions allow mixing blood with the anticoagulant and prevent clotting.
- Evacuated blood collection tubes with heparin are used for plasma determination in chemistry
- Tubes are sterile
- 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
- 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
