Features of Glucose Blood Collection Tube

✅ Contains Sodium Fluoride & Potassium Oxalate – Prevents glycolysis.
✅ Grey Top for Easy Identification – Standard for blood sugar testing.

Applications of Glucose Tubes

✅ Diabetes Testing & Glucose Tolerance Tests (GTT), HbA1c & Glycated Hemoglobin Tests
✅ Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) & Random Blood Sugar (RBS) Tests

Benefits of Fluoride Oxalate Tubes in Blood Sugar Testing

1. Prevents Glycolysis for Accurate Glucose Measurement

• Fluoride oxalate tubes contain sodium fluoride, which inhibits glycolysis (the breakdown of glucose in blood samples).
• This ensures that blood sugar levels remain stable, providing accurate test results for diabetes screening and monitoring.

2. Ideal for Long-Term Sample Preservation

• Sodium fluoride preserves glucose levels for up to 24 hours at room temperature.

• Suitable for delayed testing, ensuring consistent and reliable results.

3. Standard Tube for Diabetes Testing

• Commonly used in fasting blood sugar (FBS), random blood sugar (RBS), and glucose tolerance tests (GTT).

• Essential for HbA1c and glycated hemoglobin tests, aiding in diabetes diagnosis and management.

4. Prevents Clotting & Hemolysis

• Potassium oxalate acts as an anticoagulant, preventing clot formation in blood samples.

• Ensures smooth plasma separation for accurate laboratory analysis.

5. Compatible with Automated Analyzers

• Designed for use with automated blood analyzers in medical laboratories.

• Ensures quick and efficient blood sugar testing with minimal errors.

6. Essential for Clinical & Research Laboratories

• Used in hospitals, diagnostic centers, and research institutions.

• Supports endocrinology, metabolic studies, and diabetes research.
