FAQ – BD Vacutainer Blood Collection Tubes

1. What is a Vacutainer Tube?
A Vacutainer Tube is a vacuum-sealed blood collection tube designed for safe, accurate, and sterile specimen collection. It is commonly used in hospitals, laboratories, and research facilities for diagnostic testing and blood analysis.

2. How does a Vacutainer Tube work?
Vacutainer tubes use a vacuum-sealed system to automatically draw a precise amount of blood when attached to a needle and holder. This ensures an accurate sample volume without the risk of overfilling or underfilling.

3. What are the different types of Vacutainer Tubes?
Vacutainer tubes come in different colors, each serving a specific purpose:

Red Cap – Serum tubes (no additive or clot activator).
Gold/Tiger Cap – Serum separator tube (SST) with gel for serum separation.

4. What is the purpose of the additives in Vacutainer Tubes?
Additives in Vacutainer tubes help preserve the sample and ensure accurate test results. Some tubes contain:

Glucose Tubes (Gray Cap) – Can be stored up to 24 hours without significant degradation.
EDTA Tubes (Purple Cap) – Used for hematology, best tested within 24 hours for optimal accuracy.

8. How should Vacutainer Tubes be stored before use?
Store tubes in a cool, dry place (59°F – 86°F or 15°C – 30°C) away from direct sunlight or moisture to maintain vacuum integrity and sterility.

9. Do Vacutainer Tubes expire?
