Chemical Test Tube Vacuum Blood Collection Glucose Tube

Sterile Blood Analysis Collection Tube Grey Top with Glucose 1ml-10ml

Glucose Tubes:

Glucose tubes are used for glucose determinations like blood sugar and sugar tolerance. The tubes contain a glucose stabiliser, which allows you to block the process of glycolysis for up to 24 hours at room temperature. The range of application is: research of glucose, lactate and nucleic acid tests.

Product Description:

6. Max. vacuum degree tolerance:±10%

7. Invert the tube 6-8 times gently.

With sodium fluoride and potassium oxalate

The tubes contain a glucose stabiliser, which allows you to block the process of glycolysis for up to 24 hours at room temperature.

Scope: research of glucose and lactate

Adding sodium fluoride and potassium oxalate to a tube helps prevent the breakdown of blood glucose (a process called glycolysis) and maintain its level in a blood sample.

Sodium fluoride and potassium oxalate act as anticoagulants, binding Ca2+ ions; in addition, sodium fluoride stabilises glucose levels.

Glucose breaks down to pyruvate and lactate with the sequential implementation of various enzymatic reactions. Sodium fluoride inhibits some enzymatic reactions, including the conversion of phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpyruvate, and prevents glycolysis.
