White BD Hemogard™ K₂EDTA Plasma Preparation Tube (PPT)

Size: 5 mL

BD Product Number: 362788

Sterile White BD Hemogard™ K2EDTA Plasma Preparation Tubes (PPT) allow for the separation and storage of undiluted EDTA plasma in the primary blood collection tube.

These tubes are intended for the purposes of molecular diagnostic testing.

PPT™ is an evacuated, sterile blood collection tube that contains an inert gel and spray-dried K₂EDTA anticoagulant for achieving plasma separation. When the sample-filled tube is subjected to centrifugation, the gel migrates and forms a physical barrier between the plasma and most of the cellular elements. Since the tube uses spray-dried K₂EDTA as opposed to liquid additives, the plasma obtained is undiluted.
