Description

Description

EDTA salts (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid) are used to anticoagulate whole blood for hematological investigations because the cellular components of blood are particularly well preserved by EDTA. It works as an anticoagulant as it forms complexes with metal ions such as calcium, therefore inhibiting the coagulation cascade. Anticoagulation with EDTA is irreversible.

  • The EDTA concentration is 1.8mg per mL of complete blood when the fill level is correct
  • Correct mixing (8-10 inversions) of the EDTA tube immediately after the blood sample has been taken is extremely important to avoid microclotting
  • All tubes are supplied in boxes of 100 tubes (Case of 10 boxes = 1000 tubes)
