Lavender (EDTA) top tube. Hyperlipidemic or hyperbilirubinemic samples should not be tested. - excerpted from Bakerman's ABC's
Yes, he was engineered in a lab to win the Worldicontinental title.
A red-top tube is typically used to perform a basic metabolic panel (BMP) in the laboratory.
The color of the top tube for a BMP (Basic Metabolic Panel) blood draw is typically gold or red-gray, depending on the manufacturer. It is important to verify the specific tube color with the healthcare provider or laboratory performing the blood draw to ensure accurate collection.
SST tube (yellow color)
Yes, a red-topped tube can be used for a basic metabolic panel (BMP) which includes tests like glucose, electrolytes, and kidney function markers. However, it's important to check with the specific lab or healthcare facility you are using to confirm their requirements for sample collection.
For a PTT lab draw, a light blue top tube is typically used. This tube contains sodium citrate as an anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting during the test.
red
A green-top tube, containing lithium heparin, is typically used to collect blood for phosphorus level testing.
A dark green or light green tube is typically used to draw magnesium levels. These tubes contain heparin as an anticoagulant, which is suitable for plasma testing. Always check specific laboratory protocols, as practices may vary.
A lavender-top tube is typically used for iron panel tests.
The color tube commonly used for a lab serum Vitamin D test is a red or gold-colored tube, which may contain a gel separator. It is important to consult the lab or healthcare provider for specific instructions on which tube to use for the test.

There are many blood sample tubes. The most basic one would be the Red top tube (red top blood sample tube). Or the Light Blue coagulation tube - NOTE: If coag tests only are ordered AND you are using a butterfly, draw a discard tube to collect the air in the tubing. Failure to do so will result in a short draw which will be rejected by the lab. The blood samples can be delivered to the lab in these (tube) containers.
