EDTA tube

A vacuum blood collection tube, often called a Vacutainer, has become the standard tool for safe and accurate specimen collection in modern laboratories.

In modern laboratories, accuracy starts from the moment a sample is drawn. One of the most critical steps in this chain is selecting the correct blood collection tube.

EDTA tube is one of the most widely used types of blood collection tubes in clinical and laboratory testing.

When collecting blood samples, one of the most common questions asked by laboratory professionals and nurses is: how many times should an EDTA tube be inverted to ensure sample integrity?
