Citrate Tube

A citrate tube, also known as a blue top tube, is a type of blood collection tube used in medical laboratories to collect blood samples for coagulation testing. The tube contains a sodium citrate solution, which acts as an anticoagulant by binding to calcium ions in the blood. This prevents the blood from clotting and allows for accurate testing of coagulation factors. The citrate tube is typically used for tests such as prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and thrombin time (TT).
