BD 367925 Vacutainer® Venous Blood Collection Tube, Sodium Fluoride and Potassium Oxalate Additive, 6 mL, Gray BD Hemogard™ Closure, Plastic

For glucose and lactate testing that requires accurate, stable results, the BD Vacutainer® Sodium Fluoride and Potassium Oxalate 6 mL Tube is the standard choice in clinical laboratories. The gray color-coded BD Hemogard™ closure provides instant visual identification, and the dual-additive formulation works together to inhibit glycolysis and prevent coagulation, preserving glucose levels in the specimen from collection through analysis.

Sodium Fluoride and Potassium Oxalate for Glucose Preservation

Sodium fluoride (NaF) inhibits the glycolytic enzymes that break down glucose in whole blood after collection, preventing falsely low glucose results that can occur when specimens are not processed promptly. Potassium oxalate (KOx) acts as an anticoagulant by chelating calcium ions, preventing clot formation and allowing plasma to be separated for testing. Together, these additives provide a stable glucose specimen that can be held longer before analysis without significant degradation, supporting accurate results even in high-volume or delayed-processing workflows.

Gray Cap for Glucose Determination

The gray closure is the recognized color code for glucose determination tubes. This color coding helps phlebotomists and lab personnel quickly identify the correct tube type during collection and processing, reducing the risk of pre-analytical errors in glucose and lactate testing workflows. The translucent tube allows visual inspection of the specimen before processing.
