The Vaku-8 Blood Collection Tube system is used to collect blood directly into the tube during venipuncture and is a closed system. This is different from an open system wherein a syringe is used to collect blood and then the blood has to be transferred into test tubes.
These blood collection vacuum tubes have a prefilled anticoagulant that prevents the blood from coagulating or clotting.
Vaku-8 blood collection tubes have a Bi-cap that is a butyl rubber stopper that seals the tube and is covered by a plastic cover to prevent laboratory personnel from coming into contact with the blood sample collected
The EDTA tube is used for clinical haematology and for blood cell test instruments
It contains EDTA K3 as the anticoagulant
The colour of the tube cap is Lavender
