Buying Guide

Choose the correct additive

Select tubes with the additive matching your assay (heparin for certain chemistries, gel-clot for serum separation, plain for coagulation-free collections)

Match tube volume to draw needs

Available sizes here include 3 ml, 5 ml, and 10 ml—choose smaller tubes for small animals or pediatric draws and larger tubes when higher sample volume is required

Consider tube material

PET construction offers shatter resistance and lighter weight compared with glass, which can matter for shipping, storage, and animal handling

Check compatibility with vacutainer systems

Ensure tubes are compatible with standard vacuum collection holders and needles used in your clinic or lab to avoid seal or draw issues

Prioritize value and ratings

Compare unit pack sizes (commonly 100 pcs), user ratings, and features like gel or anticoagulant to assess overall value rather than only upfront cost
