DiagnoVac Clot Activator Tubes

DiagnoVac Clot Activator Tubes

In order to obtain serum samples from plastic tubes, the tube must have a coagulation activator added.
As the plastic surface alone is insufficient to trigger the coagulation within an acceptable time, DiagnoVac Clot Activator Tubes have silica particles added for this purpose.
These tubes are marked with the acronym CAT (Clot Activator Tube).

Clotting times
The recommended minimum time for the coagulation of samples from patients who have not been treated with anticoagulants is 60 minutes for serum (red) and 5 minutes for thrombin (orange) tubes

Centrifuging conditions:
≤ 1300 g for 10 minutes at 18-25°C for plastic serum tubes

Mixing recommendation
DiagnoVac Clot Activator Tubes should be gently inverted 180° and back 5-6 times.
