AXITUBE Sodium Citrate 3.2% Non-Vacuum Tubes — Apex Labs

The AXITUBE Sodium Citrate 3.2% Non-Vacuum Tubes are specifically engineered by Apex Labs for precise coagulation analysis, including PT and APTT testing. These tubes contain a buffered sodium citrate solution at a precise concentration of 0.109 mol/L (3.2%), maintaining the ideal 1:9 ratio of citrate to blood. Designed for manual collection techniques, these non-vacuum tubes provide clinicians with full control over the draw volume, while high-clarity medical-grade plastic and secure leak-proof caps ensure total sample integrity during transport and centrifugation.
