Frequently asked questions
What specific laboratory procedures use these tubes?
These BD Vacutainer Heparin Glass Tubes are specialized for blood collection procedures that require plasma or whole blood, preventing coagulation. Their function is enabled by the inclusion of freeze-dried Sodium Heparin, a powerful anticoagulant.
Primary applications include:
- Plasma Preparation: Obtaining plasma for numerous diagnostic and chemistry tests.
- General Blood Collection: Ideal for routine phlebotomy procedures requiring precise anticoagulant action.
- Laboratory Analysis: Essential components in chemistry, microbiology, and coagulation laboratories where sample integrity must be maintained.
What Sodium Heparin unit amounts are offered?
The BD Vacutainer Heparin Glass Tubes are supplied with two different concentrations of freeze-dried Sodium Heparin, an essential anticoagulant for specific clinical and laboratory testing. The concentration of the additive is directly related to the tube size and its intended blood draw volume:
| Tube Dimensions | Draw Volume | Sodium Heparin Units | Closure Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13 x 75 mm | 1 mL | 30 USP Units | Hemogard Closure |
| 16 x 100 mm | 10.0 mL | 143 USP Units | Conventional Stopper |
This variety ensures you can select the precise units required for your specific diagnostic applications.
Are these BD Vacutainer tubes factory new?
