Buying Guide

Match additive to testing needs

Choose heparin tubes for anticoagulation, gel clot tubes for serum separation, and plain tubes when no additive is required to ensure compatible downstream assays

Select the right tube volume

Pick 3ml for small samples and pediatric or small-animal draws, 5ml for general testing, and 10ml when larger volumes are needed to avoid repeat collection

Consider tube material and durability

PET tubes offer shatter resistance and lightweight handling for veterinary environments compared with glass alternatives

Verify pack size and unit economics

Compare cost-per-tube across 100-piece packs to assess value for routine clinic or lab throughput

Check compatibility with vacutainer systems

Ensure tubes are listed as vacutainer-style or compatible with your blood collection holders and needle systems to prevent leakage or draw failure
