Frequently asked questions

Are high-quality plastic or glass materials used?

Yes, these capillary tubes are offered in two high-quality material options to suit various laboratory requirements, particularly for micro-hematocrit procedures:

  • Plastic: A reliable and durable option for general specimen handling.
  • Borosilicate Glass: A high-quality material valued for its precision and durability. Specific variants of the borosilicate glass tubes are also available as precalibrated for precise measurement needs.
What specialized capillary tube treatments are available?

Globe Scientific offers three specialized surface treatments for their capillary tubes, which are essential for various laboratory applications, particularly microhematocrit analysis. These treatments are clearly indicated by color-coded tips for easy identification:

  • Untreated (Blue Tip): Available in plastic or borosilicate glass, these tubes are suitable for general specimen handling when anticoagulation is not required.
  • Ammonium Heparinized (Green Tip): Treated with Ammonium Heparin, this prevents blood clotting and ensures sample stability for accurate analysis.
  • Sodium Heparinized (Red Tip): This provides an alternative anticoagulant using Sodium Heparin, meeting specific clinical and research diagnostic requirements.
What do the capillary tube tip colors indicate?

The color-coded tips on the Globe Scientific capillary tubes are essential for quickly identifying the internal chemical treatment required for specific specimen handling, particularly for microhematocrit analysis.The colors signify the following treatments:* Blue Tip: Indicates the tube is Untreated (no anticoagulant).* Green Tip: Indicates the tube is treated with Ammonium Heparinized.* Red Tip: Indicates the tube is treated with Sodium Heparinized.

How are the capillary tubes packaged?

The capillary tubes (including both plastic and borosilicate glass options) are packaged in bulk quantities suitable for high-volume laboratory applications.

Each configuration includes a total of 1,000 tubes per box, organized as follows:

  • 100 units per vial
  • 10 vials per box (1,000 tubes total)
Are these high-quality microhematocrit tubes?

Yes, these Globe Scientific capillary tubes are engineered for precise micro-hematocrit analysis and general laboratory use. They are supplied in factory new condition, ensuring reliability and accuracy for professional settings.

  • Borosilicate Glass: Known for excellent chemical stability and precision. Specific borosilicate glass tubes are available precalibrated.
  • Plastic: Offers a safer, shatter-resistant alternative for robust handling and reduced risk in the laboratory setting.

Treatment Options (Color-Coded Tips)

Anticoagulant treatments are indicated by the color-coded tips for quick identification:

  • Untreated (Blue Tip): Standard tubes for samples requiring no anticoagulant.
  • Ammonium Heparinized (Green Tip): Treated with ammonium heparin to effectively prevent sample coagulation.
  • Sodium Heparinized (Red Tip): Treated with sodium heparin, also serving as a reliable anticoagulant.
What is the standard bulk packaging quantity?

The Globe Scientific capillary tubes are packaged in bulk to support high-volume laboratory needs. The standard configuration for the tubes is:
