Details
Capillary tubes for microhematocrit are used for the centrifugation of blood samples. Heparinized capillaries should be used when the samples are not immediately sealed with wax and centrifuged. The heparinized coating delays the clotting of the blood. The heparinization is applied as a thin, homogeneous coating on the tube. This enhances the immediate dissolving of the heparin in the blood and prevents agglutination.
Capillary tubes are essential tools in medical laboratories and diagnostic centers, designed for precise micro-sample collection. Whether used for blood sampling, hematocrit tests, or other specialized procedures, these tubes offer accuracy and reliability, making them indispensable in both clinical and research settings.
When it comes to micro-sample collection, precision is critical. Our capillary tubes are engineered to deliver accurate measurements of small fluid volumes, ensuring that each sample is collected with exactitude. These tubes are particularly valuable in procedures requiring minute blood samples, such as capillary blood gas analysis or hematocrit testing. Their fine calibration and clear markings allow for easy reading, reducing the risk of errors and enhancing the accuracy of diagnostic results.
Made from high-quality, medical-grade glass or plastic, our capillary tubes are both durable and safe. They are designed to withstand the demands of various laboratory environments without compromising their structural integrity. The smooth, clear surface of the tubes facilitates easy filling and reading, while the non-toxic material ensures that the sample remains uncontaminated. Additionally, these tubes are designed to minimize air bubbles, which can interfere with accurate measurements.
Capillary tubes are versatile tools used in a wide range of diagnostic procedures. From measuring hematocrit levels to performing capillary electrophoresis, these tubes are vital in both routine and specialized laboratory tests. Their ability to handle small sample volumes makes them ideal for pediatric and geriatric patients, where blood conservation is important. Whether used in point-of-care testing or in more complex laboratory settings, capillary tubes are a key component in ensuring accurate and reliable results.
