8.5mL BD Blood Collection Tubes Vacutainer with PPT™ Plasma Preparation (Pearl White)
The 8.5mL BD Vacutainer® PPT™ Plasma Preparation Tube with BD Hemogard™ Pearl White/Black Closure is designed for streamlined plasma separation and molecular testing. Containing 15.8 mg of K2EDTA, it acts as an anticoagulant to preserve nucleic acids and prevent clotting, while the integrated gel barrier ensures clean plasma isolation. The Hemogard™ closure enhances safety by minimizing blood exposure during handling.
Ideal for molecular diagnostics, viral load testing, and nucleic acid amplification procedures, this tube supports consistent sample integrity across clinical and research workflows. Its dual-function design simplifies processing, making it a trusted choice for labs focused on precision, biosafety, and efficiency.
BD Vacutainer® PPT™ Plasma Preparation Tube provides a means for collection, processing and transportation of an undiluted EDTA plasma specimen in a closed evacuated system. BD Vacutainer® PPT™ separates undiluted EDTA plasma for use in molecular diagnostic test methods, such as, but not limited to, polymerase chain reactions and/or branched DNA amplification techniques.
