The gray color-coded BD Hemogard™ closure provides instant visual identification, and the dual additive formulation inhibits glycolysis and prevents coagulation to preserve glucose levels from collection through analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSodium Fluoride and Potassium Oxalate for Glucose Preservation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSodium 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 supports accurate results even in high-volume or delayed processing workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGray Cap for Glucose Determination\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003egray closure\u003c\/strong\u003e is the recognized color code for glucose determination tubes. The translucent tube allows visual inspection of the specimen before processing, and the silicone coated closure minimizes cellular activation during collection and transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e BD Vacutainer®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdditive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sodium Fluoride and Potassium Oxalate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glucose and Lactate Determination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glucose Determination Tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 x 75 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e BD Hemogard™ Closure, Silicone Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCap Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Translucent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic, Sterile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Unit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,000 tubes per case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem #:\u003c\/strong\u003e 367922 \/ 320512\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStock Status:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stocked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Stocked Glucose Tube for High-Volume Labs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStocked and available by the case, this tube is a dependable choice for hospital chemistry departments, outpatient collection centers, and reference labs that process glucose and lactate specimens daily.
