Collection Instructions

Draw blood in a light blue-top tube containing 3.2% sodium citrate, mix gently by inverting 3‑4 times. Centrifuge 15 minutes at 1500 g within one hour of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, avoiding the WBC/platelet buffy layer, place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet‑poor plasma into a new plastic vial(s). Freeze immediately and transport on dry ice.
