BD 368381 Vacutainer® SPC Plus Venous Blood Collection Tube, K2 EDTA Additive, 6 mL, Blue BD Hemogard™ Closure, Plastic, 100/Pack 

For trace element testing and other analyte determination applications that require a whole blood or plasma specimen, the BD Vacutainer® SPC Plus K2 EDTA 6 mL Tube provides reliable anticoagulation in a royal blue color-coded format. The BD Hemogard™ closure protects lab personnel during post-centrifuge handling, and the K2 EDTA additive preserves cellular morphology and prevents clotting for accurate hematology and analyte testing.

K2 EDTA for Whole Blood and Plasma Preservation

K2 EDTA prevents coagulation by chelating calcium ions in the blood, preserving cellular morphology and maintaining sample integrity for a wide range of testing applications. In the SPC Plus format, this tube is specifically designed for analyte determination workflows where the royal blue color coding is required to indicate a low-metal, trace element-grade tube. This helps labs quickly identify the correct tube type and avoid pre-analytical errors in specialized testing programs.

Royal Blue Cap for Analyte Determination

The royal blue closure is the recognized color code for tubes intended for trace element, toxicology, and nutritional chemistry testing. Using the correct tube type for these applications is critical, as standard tubes may introduce trace metal contamination that can compromise results. The SPC Plus designation indicates this tube meets the requirements for these specialized analyte determination workflows.
