The gray color-coded BD Hemogard™ closure provides instant visual identification, and the dual-additive formulation works together to inhibit glycolysis and prevent coagulation, preserving glucose levels in the specimen 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 can be held longer before analysis without significant degradation, supporting 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. This color coding helps phlebotomists and lab personnel quickly identify the correct tube type during collection and processing, reducing the risk of pre-analytical errors in glucose and lactate testing workflows. The translucent tube allows visual inspection of the specimen before processing.\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 6 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 x 100 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 367925 \/ 321842\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Reliable Glucose Tube for High-Volume Labs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable by the case for high-volume labs, this tube is a dependable choice for hospital chemistry departments, outpatient collection centers, and reference labs that process glucose and lactate specimens daily.
