Lavender Top EDTA K3 Vacuum Blood Collection Tubes are designed for the collection of whole blood samples for clinical laboratory use. Each tube contains liquid tripotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (K₃EDTA) as an anticoagulant. These tubes feature an internationally recognized lavender cap and are commonly used in complete blood counts (CBC), white blood cell analysis, blood typing, and molecular diagnostics. The pre-set vacuum ensures accurate blood volume, while the liquid K₃EDTA provides consistent anticoagulation and excellent sample preservation.
The liquid K₃EDTA disperses evenly inside the tube, preventing clot formation and preserving cell morphology for reliable results.
The lavender-colored cap aligns with global laboratory standards, making the tubes easy to identify and sort.
Each tube is vacuum-sealed to draw a consistent blood volume, ensuring standardized sample processing.
Available in high-strength PET plastic or medical-grade glass, both offering excellent sealing and pressure resistance.

EDTA tube is a type of blood collection tube that contains ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as an anticoagulant. EDTA works by binding to calcium ions in the blood, which prevents clotting and helps preserve the sample for laboratory analysis.
The primary purpose of using EDTA tubes is to collect blood samples for various laboratory tests, particularly those related to blood cell counts and blood typing. EDTA helps maintain the integrity of the blood sample by preventing coagulation and ensuring reliable test results.
EDTA works by chelating calcium ions in the blood, which are essential for the coagulation process. By binding these ions, EDTA prevents clot formation.
Sinymedical offers K2 and K3 EDTA tubes, which differ in the number of potassium ions they contain, catering to various laboratory needs.
K2 EDTA tubes contain dipotassium EDTA, while K3 EDTA tubes contain tripotassium EDTA, differing in concentration and specific applications.
Both types effectively prevent clotting, but the choice between them may depend on specific laboratory protocols and test requirements.
Yes, K2 EDTA tubes are suitable for most hematological tests, including complete blood counts (CBC) and blood typing.
K3 EDTA tubes are often used in specialized applications where a higher concentration of potassium is needed, such as certain molecular assays.
Store EDTA tubes at room temperature (4-25°C) and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight to maintain their effectiveness. It is important to check the expiration date on the tubes and avoid using expired products
