| Mint Green | STAT Chemestries: |
| Green | ammonia; pH; O2 level; carboxyhemoglobin |
| Sterile Blood culture tubes | Blood cultures |
| Red | Drug levels; blood bank testing(type&screen;type&match;blood type) |
| Red speckled | Routine chemestries: CMP;liver panel;hepatitis panel; thyroid panel; amylase;lipase, lipid panel, cardiac panel |
| Gold | Routine chemestries: CMP; liver panel; hepatitis panel; thyroid panel;amylase;lipase, lipid panel, cardiac panel |
| Gray | Glucose studies; lactic acid |
| pink | cbc, type and screen; type and match; type |
| glucose studies includes | fasting blood glucose; post prandial blood glucose; glucose tolerance test |
