Product details
BD Vacutainer® Fluoride Tubes are designed for blood collection when accurate glucose and lactate measurements are required. These tubes contain sodium fluoride, a glycolysis inhibitor, typically combined with an anticoagulant such as potassium oxalate or EDTA to prevent clotting and preserve blood sugar levels after collection.
Manufactured by BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), Vacutainer® fluoride tubes feature a precise vacuum draw to ensure proper blood-to-additive ratios for consistent laboratory results. Their durable construction and secure closures help prevent leaks and contamination, while the color-coded stoppers allow for quick identification in clinical environments.
Ideal for hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and diagnostic centers, these tubes are commonly used for glucose testing, blood sugar monitoring, and metabolic studies.
