Heparin Tube

The Golden Vac™ heparin tube is designed for collecting heparinized plasma or whole blood, ideal for emergency biochemical and hemorheological tests. Available in both lithium heparin and sodium heparin, the anticoagulant activates antithrombin, effectively blocking the clotting cascade to produce whole blood or plasma samples. Lithium heparin is preferred for testing as it does not interfere with ion detection, including sodium ions. After drawing, the tube should be gently inverted 8-10 times to properly activate the anticoagulant. Recommended centrifugation is below 1300 g (RCF) for 10 minutes at 18-25°C.
