Micro Tube

Clot Activator & Gel


During the centrifugation of tubes, an inert gel separates the 

serum and the blood clot preventing the contamination of 

the serum from the separated cellular components. The 

stability of the gel barrier is a distinct advantage during 

transport and storage.The blood to additive ratio is 9:1.

Clotting


30 minutes

The recommended minimum coagulation time


Classification


✔ Serum analysis

1300-2000 g for 10 minutes


Storage


Should be stored at 4-25°C and protected from direct sunlight during storage. Cooling of the tube by or during centrifuging can affect the movement capability of the gel. The optimum separation of serum and coagulated blood is achieved at a temperature of 20-25°


Specs


  • Stable barrier between serum and clotted blood, therefore better analyte stability

  • Better sample quality.

  • Optimization of the workflow: short centrifugation time, sample processing and archiving in the primary tube.

  • No possibility of misidentification due to the use of secondary tubes
