BD 367841 Vacutainer® Venous Blood Collection Tube, K2 EDTA Additive, 2 mL, Lavender BD Hemogard™ Closure, Plastic, 1000/Case 

When a smaller draw volume is needed without sacrificing sample quality, the BD Vacutainer® K2 EDTA 2 mL Whole Blood Tube 367841 delivers reliable anticoagulation in a compact format. Available by the case for high volume labs, this tube is well suited for pediatric patients, difficult draws, and applications where minimizing blood volume is a clinical priority.

K2 EDTA for Whole Blood and Hematology Testing

K2 EDTA (spray-dried) prevents clotting by chelating calcium ions in the blood, preserving cellular morphology and maintaining sample integrity for complete blood count testing and other hematology applications. The lavender color coded BD Hemogard™ closure provides instant visual identification, helping phlebotomists quickly confirm the correct tube during collection. The silicone coated closure further supports sample quality by reducing the risk of cellular activation during tube handling.

BD Hemogard™ Closure for Safer Post-Draw Handling

The BD Hemogard™ closure is engineered to reduce aerosol and splatter exposure when the tube is opened after centrifugation. The rubber stopper is recessed inside the plastic shield, so any drops left by a blood collection needle remain isolated from potential contact. This added layer of protection is especially valuable in high volume labs where staff open many tubes throughout the day.
