SODIUM CITRATE
Trisodium citrate is used as an anticoagulant for coagulation investigations. It works as an anticoagulant as it forms complexes with metal ions such as calcium inhibiting the coagulation cascade. Anticoagulation with trisodium citrate is reversible.
LYBCON Vacutainer Citrate tubes contain buffered citrate in accordance with recommendations:
0.105 M or 0.109 M of buffered trisodium citrate solution, equivalent to 3.2% trisodium citrate The blood to additive ratio is 9:1.
The citrate solution in the acts as LYBCON Vacutainer a buffer. Therefore, no additional buffer substances are added as these can adversely affect laboratory analysis.
LYBCON Vacutainer Citrate tubes are also suitable for carrying out special test procedures such as the platelet function test PFA-100. Special tubes and the associated additional costs are therefore unnecessary.
FILL LINE MARKING
The significance of the correct ratio of blood to additive for coagulation samples is well documented. The correct fill amount is critical for correct coagulation analysis. All LYBCON Vacutainer coagulation tubes have a mark indicating the minimum fill level.
CENTRIFUGING CONDITIONS
For coagulation analysis different plasma specifications can be obtained from the citrated blood.
Platelet rich plasma:150-200g for 5 minutes at 18-25 C
Platelet poor plasma:2000-2500g for 10-15 minutes at 18-25 C
Platelet free plasma: >3000g for 15-30 minutes at 18-25 C
MIXING RECOMMENDATION
Citrate tubes should be gently inverted 180 and back 3-4 times.
The tubes are designed for blood The tubes are designed for blood LYBCON Vacutainer sedimentation without the use of sedimentation pipettes. The blood is taken directly into the tubes and LYBCON Vacutainer turned end-over-end 8-10 times.
Immediately before the tubes are placed in the stand for measurement, LYBCON Vacutainer the tubes must be mixed again. After one or two hours the results are read. The stand holds a LYBCON Vacutainer maximum of 10 tubes and has a height Lybcon adjustable zero mark. The measurement results achieved correspond to the Westergren method.
MIXING RECOMMENDATION
ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) tubes should be gently inverted 180 and back 8-10 times.

Dr. Odin Phelgum Tube for Suction Machines is suitable for convenient removal of secretion, blood and debris etc per operatively. This tube is used for suctioning oropharyngeal secretion or clears the operative site like fluid, blood, pus and/or gas from a wound or body cavity.
For coagulation studies, trisodium citrate is utilized as an anticoagulant. Because it forms compounds with metal ions like calcium, it acts as an anticoagulant by preventing the coagulation cascade. Trisodium citrate can reverse anticoagulation.
