    1.Black: sodium citrate;

    Esr. 2.Light blue: sodium citrate;

    Hemagglutination tests (e.g., PT, APTT).

    3.Dark blue: Heparin sodium or EDTA

    4.Purple: EDTA

    5.Green: lithium heparin;

    Most of the biochemical, blood ammonia.

    6.Gray: Blood glucose degradation inhibitors and EDTA

    7.Brown: Heparin sodium or EDTA

    8.Light yellow ACD tube:

    glucose, anticoagulants; Blood bank test.

    9.Light yellow sps tubes:

    SPS solution, sodium chloride solution; Blood cultures, microorganisms.

    There are many different colored blood collection tubes, and they serve the following purposes:

    The red capped tube is called a regular serum tube, and the blood collection tube does not contain any additives, and is used for routine serum biochemistry, blood banking, and serology related tests.

    The yellow-headed cap test tube is an inert separating gel procoagulant tube, which is generally used for emergency serum biochemical tests.

    The test tube with the orange head cover is a rapid serum tube, the specimen type is serum, and the blood is drawn and placed in a water bath for more than 30min for 37 minutes, centrifuged, and the upper serum is set aside.

    The purple tube can be used to check blood routine, blood biochemistry and other items.

    The black tube is mostly used for the detection of erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

    In addition, there are blood culture test tubes (yellow), sodium citrate anticoagulation tubes (blue), serum tubes with or without blood clotting activator or gel separation, heparin tubes with or without gel (green), EDTA anticoagulant tubes (purple), and blood glucose decomposition inhibitor tubes (gray), which are used for the detection of different items.

    The different colors of blood collection tubes have their own examination purposes, and the order of use should be followed to minimize the analysis errors caused by specimen collection. At the same time, according to the items to be tested, the corresponding test tube is selected.

    This figure is from Fundamentals of Clinical Laboratory (5th Edition).

    Although it is said that the blood collection tubes of the golden skull should also be mixed, in fact, few people do this in clinical practice.

    1.Plain Serum Tube Red cap, additive-free, used for routine serum biochemistry, blood banking, and serology-related tests. 2.

    The rapid serum tube has an orange-red head cap and a procoagulant in the blood collection tube, which is suitable for emergency serum serial testing. 3.The golden head cap of the inert separating gel coagulation tube is added, and the inert separating gel and coagulant are added to the blood collection tube.

    Suitable for emergency serum biochemical testing. 4.The heparin anticoagulant tube is covered with a green cap with heparin added to the blood collection tube.

    It is suitable for red blood cell fragility test, blood gas analysis, hematocrit test, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and general energy biochemical determination, and is not suitable for blood coagulation test. 5.The light green head cap of the plasma separation tube, with lithium heparin anticoagulant added to the inert separation hose, is the best choice for electrolyte testing, and can also be used for routine plasma biochemical assays and emergency plasma biochemical tests such as ICU.

    Plasma specimens can be loaded directly onto the machine and remain stable for 48 hours in a refrigerated state. Anticoagulant tube purple cap for general hematology tests. 7.

    Sodium citrate coagulation test tube light blue head cap, sodium citrate mainly plays an anticoagulant role by chelating with calcium ions in blood samples. Suitable for coagulation experiments. 8.

    Esr. 2.Light blue: sodium citrate;

    Hemagglutination tests (e.g., PT, APTT).

    3.Dark blue: Heparin sodium or EDTA-Na2; Trace elements in the blood.

    4.Purple: EDTA-K2;

    Routine blood test (blood fine imitation precursor cell analysis for preparation of foci).

    5.Green: lithium heparin;
