Frequently Asked Questions
They are primarily used for plasma determination in clinical chemistry, allowing for the measurement of electrolytes and other metabolites without clotting.
During centrifugation, the thixotropic gel moves to an intermediate density between the plasma and the blood cells, creating a physical barrier to prevent migration.
Yes, our tubes are designed to fit standard laboratory automation systems and centrifuges globally.
They should be stored in a cool, dry place, typically between 2-25°C, and kept away from direct sunlight.
Lithium Heparin is preferred for plasma chemistry because it does not interfere with sodium measurements in the blood.
Yes, our manufacturing process adheres to strict ISO and regional medical device standards to ensure safety and reliability.
