BD Vacutainer PST II Tube 4.5ml Bx100
During centrifugation of Eclipse PST II tubes, an inert gel separates serum and red blood cells, preventing the contamination of plasma from the separated cellular components. Routine analytes (e.g., potassium, glucose) and special chemistries (e.g., therapeutic drugs, proteins, peptides, steroids and vitamins) demonstrate a high degree of stability.
The main advantages of gel tubes versus non-gel tubes are:
Stable barrier between plasma and red blood cells
Better analyte stability and sample quality
Optimized workflow: short centrifugation time, sample processing and archiving in one tube
No possibility of confusion due to the use of secondary tubes
Storage: Store at 4-25°C, protected from direct sunlight; optimum separation is achieved at 20-25°C
Mixing the tube: Invert tube 8-10 times immediately after collecting sample to avoid microclotting
Centrifugation conditions at 18-25°C: 1300-2000g for 10 minutes or 3000g for 5 minutes
