Gel & Clot Activator Sst Tube

The Gel & Clot Activator SST Tube is used to collect blood for clinical biochemistry and immunology. This tube contains a barrier polyer - gel which is present at the bottom, which forms a barrier separating serum from fibrin and cells during centrifugation. It can prevent substance exchange between cell and serum, guaranteeing biochemical character and chemical components of serum unchanged for a long time. The specific gravity of this material lies between the blood clot and the serum. Serum may be aspirated directly from the collection tube, eliminating the need for transfer to another container. It is used for serum determinations in chemistry.
