J.K. Diagnostic K2EDTA Non Vacuum Blood Collection Tube PP - 1ml Pack of 100 Tubes (EACDE01)

The J.K. Diagnostic K2EDTA Non Vacuum Blood Collection Tube, with a 1ml capacity, is engineered for precise hematology testing. Constructed from medical-grade polypropylene (PP), this tube is designed for non-vacuum blood collection, offering a lightweight and shatter-resistant solution for safe handling during sample collection and processing.

Pre-filled with K2 EDTA (dipotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), this tube functions as an anticoagulant by binding calcium ions, which are essential for the coagulation cascade. This action effectively prevents blood clotting, thereby preserving blood cells in their natural state for accurate diagnostic results. K2 EDTA is particularly favored for hematological investigations, including complete blood count (CBC), white blood cell differential, and red cell indices, as it maintains cellular integrity and minimizes impact on blood cell morphology.

The use of polypropylene as the tube material ensures durability and chemical resistance, making it suitable for storing a wide range of blood samples without contamination. Research indicates that polypropylene tubes are safe and reliable for blood sample storage, and their inherent durability reduces the likelihood of breakage during handling and transportation, contributing to sample integrity.
