J.K. Diagnostic Sodium Fluoride & EDTA Vacuum 2ml Blood Collection Tube - Pack of 100 Tubes (EAVFL02)

The J.K. Diagnostic Sodium Fluoride & EDTA Vacuum 2ml Blood Collection Tube is engineered for efficient and consistent blood sample collection, providing an optimal volume for a range of diagnostic tests. These tubes feature a unique combination of Sodium Fluoride and EDTA, specifically designed to preserve blood samples for various laboratory analyses.

The Sodium Fluoride additive functions by stopping enzymatic activity in the glycolytic pathway, which is crucial for preventing the rapid decrease of glucose values in unpreserved blood samples after collection. Concurrently, EDTA acts as an anticoagulant by forming complexes with metal ions such as calcium, thereby inhibiting the coagulation cascade and preserving the cellular components of the blood for hematological investigations. This makes the tubes particularly useful for glucose testing and molecular diagnostics.

Crafted from high-quality plastic materials, these blood collection tubes meet industry standards for safety and reliability, with materials specifically chosen to preserve the integrity of blood samples during storage and transportation. The manufacturing facility for J.K. Diagnostic blood collection tubes is FDA approved, ensuring adherence to stringent quality and regulatory standards.
