Heparin Tube

The Golden Vac™ heparin tube is designed for collecting heparinized plasma or whole blood, suitable for emergency biochemical and hemorheological testing. It is available in both lithium heparin and sodium heparin. Heparin works by activating antithrombin, which blocks the clotting cascade, leading to a whole blood or plasma sample. Lithium heparin does not interfere with ion detection during testing, including sodium ion. After collection, gently invert the tube 8-10 times to mix the anticoagulant properly. For optimal results, centrifugation should be conducted at <1300 g (RCF) for 10 minutes at 18-25°C.
