Sodium Citrate Blood Collection Tubes are specially formulated for the collection of blood samples used in coagulation and hemostasis testing. Each tube contains sodium citrate anticoagulant, which prevents blood clotting by chelating calcium ions while maintaining the integrity of coagulation factors. These tubes are essential for accurate PT (Prothrombin Time), APTT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time), and other clotting factor assays. The anticoagulant is pre-measured to maintain the correct blood-to-additive ratio, ensuring precise laboratory results. Manufactured from high-quality medical-grade plastic or glass, sodium citrate tubes feature a secure vacuum system for accurate blood collection and minimal contamination. They are sterile, leak-proof, and compatible with automated laboratory analyzers. Sodium citrate tubes are widely used in hospitals, clinical laboratories, research facilities, and diagnostic centers. Key Features Contains sodium citrate anticoagulant Maintains correct blood-to-additive ratio Ideal for coagulation tests (PT, APTT, fibrinogen, etc.) Ensures accurate and reliable laboratory results Sterile, leak-proof, and easy to handle Compatible with manual and automated analyzers Applications Coagulation and hemostasis testing Hospitals and diagnostic laboratories Research laboratories and clinical pathology Blood clotting factor analysis
