Nasmed K3 EDTA Vacuum Blood Collection Tube - 4ml Pack of 100 Tubes (NVK34)

The Nasmed K3 EDTA Vacuum Blood Collection Tubes are engineered for the precise collection and preservation of whole blood samples, essential for a wide array of diagnostic tests. Each tube contains K3 EDTA (tripotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) as an anticoagulant, which functions by chelating calcium ions to effectively prevent blood coagulation. This mechanism ensures the preservation of blood sample integrity, allowing for accurate and reliable test results in hematology investigations such as complete blood count (CBC), hemoglobin estimation, platelet count, peripheral blood smear analysis, blood grouping, Rh typing, antibody screens, and viral marker testing. The K3 EDTA is supplied in liquid form, ensuring instantaneous and uniform anticoagulation upon blood contact.

These tubes feature a 4ml draw volume and are constructed from medical-grade PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which is shatter-resistant, optically clear for visual specimen inspection, and chemically inert to prevent interaction with blood components. The advanced vacuum technology employed in these collection tubes facilitates an accurate and consistent blood draw, minimizing the risk of hemolysis and ensuring a smooth collection process. Designed with a leak-proof lavender/purple cap, these tubes ensure safe sample transport and maintain sample integrity. All raw materials used are non-toxic, food, and medical certified, adhering to European directives.

Nasmed K3 EDTA Vacuum Blood Collection Tubes are manufactured under strict adherence to industry standards, ensuring the highest level of quality assurance. They are sterile, produced under EO (ethylene oxide) sterilization protocols, and comply with ISO 13485 quality management standards, CE marking (where applicable), and are CDSCO (Drug license) certified. This robust regulatory compliance ensures consistency in pre-analytical variable control, which is critical for maintaining NABL accreditation status in diagnostic laboratories.
