{"title":"Vacutainer Tubes","description":"\u003ch1\u003eVacutainer Tubes\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVacutainer tubes (often called \u003cstrong\u003eevacuated blood collection tubes\u003c\/strong\u003e) are the standard devices used to draw and transport blood specimens for laboratory testing. Each tube is a sterile glass or plastic container sealed with a colored rubber stopper under vacuum. When the stopper’s seal is pierced by a blood-drawing needle, the internal vacuum automatically pulls in a fixed volume of blood. This closed-tube system has largely replaced older syringe-and-tube methods, because the vacuum ensures a precise blood volume and minimizes handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colored stopper on a Vacutainer indicates the tube’s additive (if any). Different colors correspond to different preservatives or reagents for various tests. For example, a lavender-top tube contains EDTA anticoagulant for whole blood (hematology) tests, a light-blue tube contains sodium citrate for coagulation studies, and a red or gold stopper (with clot activator) yields clotted blood (serum) for chemistry panels. Because each tube’s vacuum is calibrated to its additive, the correct blood-to-additive ratio is guaranteed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn practice, Vacutainers are used with a needle holder to collect multiple samples in one venipuncture. After drawing, tubes are capped and gently inverted (if they have anticoagulant) before laboratory processing. The one-time-use, closed design reduces contamination or hemolysis risk. Today, vacutainer tubes are ubiquitous in hospitals and clinics for routine blood tests – from complete blood counts to metabolic panels – providing a safe, standardized way to collect blood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"VODHU pdMy8\"\u003eThe name “Vacutainer” comes from BD (Becton Dickinson), which popularized this closed vacuum system, but the term is now used generically for any evacuated collection tube.

The 13 × 100 mm tube holds up to 6.0 mL of blood (draw volume) and uses a red Hemogard™ rubber stopper (color‐coded red). It contains an interior coating of silicone and micronized silica (clot activator).

It has a \u003cstrong\u003elight blue color cap\u003c\/strong\u003e (“Hemogard” style closure) and holds a 2.7 mL draw volume. Inside, it contains \u003cstrong\u003ebuffered sodium citrate\u003c\/strong\u003e at 0.109 M (3.2%) concentration as the anticoagulant. The tube’s dimensions are 13 mm in diameter by 75 mm in length, which is a common size for coagulation tubes.

This preserves the blood in a fluid (non-clotted) state for analysis. Importantly, the Vacutainer is factory-calibrated so that when filled to its 2.7 mL mark, the blood-to-citrate ratio is the standard 9:1 required for coagulation assays. After collection, the tube is gently inverted to mix blood with citrate. The resulting \u003cstrong\u003eplasma\u003c\/strong\u003e (obtained after centrifugation) is used for tests like PT\/INR, aPTT, fibrinogen, D-dimer and other coagulation panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e BD specifies that these citrate tubes are “designed for use in routine coagulation studies”. In practice, they are the standard light-blue-top tubes used in hospitals and labs for almost all clotting tests. Because citrate binds calcium and stops clotting, the tube must be filled properly (to ensure the 9:1 ratio) and promptly processed. Once blood is drawn, laboratories centrifuge the tube to separate plasma; the plasma is then assayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e The tube itself is plastic (Vacutainer Plus), with a paper label for writing patient info. The Hemogard closure is BD’s plastic flip-top (usually matching the light blue color of citrate tubes) over a rubber stopper. This design keeps the stopper clean (no metal crimp) and provides a secure, sterile seal until use. After draw, the flip cap can be removed and the rubber septum pierced by a needle to withdraw sample or add reagents.

The tubes contain both a clot activator and a gel separator additive. The clot activator helps the blood to clot faster, while the gel separator helps to separate the serum from the blood cells during centrifugation.
