Product Overview

The 6ml EDTA K3 Vacuum Blood Collection Tube is a sterile, single-use tube designed for safe and efficient blood sample collection. Pre-filled with EDTA K3 anticoagulant, it prevents clotting and ensures sample integrity for hematology tests like CBC, ESR, and blood typing. Its vacuum-sealed design guarantees accurate fill volume, while the safety cap minimizes contamination risks. Ideal for labs, hospitals, and clinics, it complies with ISO standards for reliable diagnostics.

Typical Application Scenarios

  • Clinical Labs: Routine blood counts, WBC differential, platelet function, ESR tests.

  • Research: Cell separation, stem cell prep, DNA/RNA extraction.

  • Health Screenings: High-throughput sample collection in automated settings.

  • Emergency & ICU: Fast blood parameter checks for cardiovascular events, infections, and anemia

What is a 6ml EDTA K3 Vacuum Blood Collection Tube used for?

This tube collects blood samples for hematology tests, including complete blood count (CBC), hemoglobin analysis, and blood typing. The EDTA K3 anticoagulant prevents clotting, ensuring accurate lab results. It’s widely used in diagnostic labs, hospitals, and research facilities.

Why is EDTA K3 used in blood collection tubes?

EDTA K3 binds calcium ions, preventing blood coagulation and preserving cell morphology. This ensures reliable test results for hematology studies. Unlike other anticoagulants, EDTA K3 minimizes sample deterioration over time.

Are these tubes sterile and safe?

Yes, each tube is pre-sterilized, single-use, and features a safety cap to prevent leaks and contamination. They comply with ISO 6710 and CE standards for medical safety.

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.

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
