All Type blood collection tube:-

EDTA Tubes (Purple):-EDTA prevents clotting by chelating calcium, an essential component of coagulation. Depending on what you are doing, EDTA in blood collection tubes could be a disaster!

EDTA blood collection tubes are your basic hematology tubes (by which I mean identifying and counting blood cells, blood typing, etc.).

Sodium Citrate Tubes (Light Blue):-For coagulation and platelet function tests. Like EDTA, citrate removes calcium from the blood by chelating it. Unlike EDTA, it’s reversible—so calcium can be added back to study coagulation under controlled conditions. Citrated plasma is also used to measure coagulation-relevant factors.

CTAD Tubes (Also Light Blue) :- CTAD stands for citrate, theophylline, adenosine, and dipyridamole. These aren’t common but are worth knowing about—they prevent ex vivo activation of your platelets, making them useful for some more sensitive platelet function and coagulation studies.

Heparin Tubes (Green) :-These tubes can contain either lithium heparin or sodium heparin. They are similar to serum clot activator tubes, but suitable for tests in plasma rather than serum. Like serum tubes, heparin tubes for blood collection may also have a separating gel. Heparin acts by inhibiting thrombin formation.

Sodium Fluoride Tubes:- Sodium fluoride is an antiglycolytic agent (it prevents glucose metabolism), so these tubes are used for glucose and lactate testing. They also contain an anticoagulant.
