- 1—Yellow:
Additive: SPS--- Sodium Polyanetholsulfonate (poly-anethol-sulfonate)
What additive does: Prevents the blood from clotting and stabilizes bacterial growth.
Laboratory Uses: Blood and bodily fluid cultures - 2—Blood Cultures collected for Fever of Unknown Origin (FUO)
Additive: Culture Medium
Aerobic collected first
Anaerobic collected second
Site must be cleaned 2 times, once with alcohol and once with iodine
Collect 8-10 ml per bottle
3-4 ml per bottle for children
Invert bottles 8-10 times
- 3—Light Blue:
Additive: Sodium Citrate
(Fill tube completely for 9:1 ratio blood to Sodium Citrate, cannot collect capillary blood in this tube- venipuncture only.)
What additive does: Removes calcium to prevent blood from clotting
Laboratory uses: Coagulation (clotting process)
Different testing: PT
- 4—Additive: None
What additive does: None
Laboratory Uses: Serum testing; chemistry studies, blood bank, serology
Different Testing: RH Typing, Antibody screening
- 5—Gold tube and tiger tops are drawn together either order.
Additive: Polymer Gel and clot activator
- 6—Additive: None, but contains silica particles to enhance clot formation
What additive does: speeds clotting process
