IMPROVACUTER® EDTA Blood Collection Spray Tubes

The K₂EDTA anticoagulant prevents blood coagulation by chelating calcium ions, preserving cellular morphology and maintaining specimen integrity for accurate complete blood count (CBC) analysis and differential cell counts. The spray-coating application ensures uniform anticoagulant distribution throughout the specimen, while the tubes are compatible with direct sampling analyzers for seamless integration with automated hematology systems. Blood smearing should be performed within 3 hours after collection to ensure optimal cellular morphology for microscopic examination. The PET construction with lavender-colored safety cap provides standardized color coding for EDTA tubes and secure specimen containment.
