| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| In this tube the Blood clots, and the serum is separated by centrifugation | RED TOP |
| Serum separator tube (SST) contains a gel at the bottom to separate blood from serum on centrifugation | GOLD TOP |
| LIGHT GREEN TOP ADDITIVE: | Plasma Separating Tube (PST) with Lithium heparin |
| Forms calcium salts to remove calcium | EDTA |
| Hematology (CBC) and Blood Bank (Crossmatch); requires full draw - invert 8 times to prevent clotting and platelet clumping | EDTA/PURPLE TOP |
| MODE OF ACTION: Forms calcium salts to remove calcium | LIGHT BLUE TOP |
| USES: Coagulation tests (protime and prothrombin time), full draw required | SODIUM CITRATE |
| ADDITIVE:Sodium heparin or lithium heparin | Test for lithium OR SODIUM levels |
| GREEN TOP ACTION: | Inactivates thrombin and thromboplastin |
| USES: Trace element testing (zinc, copper, lead, mercury) and toxicology | DARK BLUE TOP |
| MODE OF ACTION: Tube is designed to contain no contaminating metals | EDTA |
| LIGHT GREY TOP additive: | Sodium fluoride and potassium oxalate |
| USES: Glucose, requires full draw (may cause hemolysis if short draw) | LIGHT GRAY TOP |
| YELLOW TOP ADDITIVE | ACD (acid-citrate-dextrose) |
| uses for yellow top | HLA tissue typing, paternity testing, DNA studies |

| heparinized tube containing a gel separator | PLASMA SEPARATOR TUBE (PST) |
| tube containing a gel separator and silica to activate clotting. | SERUM SEPARATOR TUBE (SST) |
| an electrolyte STAT test is usually collected in a: | LITHIUM HEPARIN TUBE |
| color top that contains SPS | GRAY |
| color top that contains THIXOTROPIC GEL | GOLD OR MOTTLED RED AND GREY |
| the purpose of sodium citrate in specimen collection is to: | PROTECT COAGULATION FACTORS |
| This test requires preparation of a blood film on a glass slide | MANUAL DIFFERENTIAL |

| The appropriate anticoagulant used to coat a syringe for collecting an arterial blood gas is: | HEPARIN |
| What should normal plasma specimen look like?: | LIGHT YELLOW COLOR |
| If an CBC that was collected in a EDTA tube was left out over night, what would be effected by the processing delay?: | WHITE BLOOD CELL DIFFERENTIAL. |
| Acid washed syringes are used to collect specimens for analysis of | ALL TRACE ELEMENTS. |
| When performing capillary punctures on neonates, the following order of the collection is mandated: | HEMATOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, BLOOD BANK. |
