Capper Perfetto 2 ml Lithium Heparin is a test tube specifically designed for the collection and preparation of blood samples, mainly intended for laboratory tests that require the presence of lithium heparin as an anticoagulant. Thanks to a capacity of 2 ml, this test tube represents an ideal combination of practicality and optimization of the quantity collected, offering reliability and quality in maintaining the characteristics of the sample.
The perfect cap is designed to ensure an airtight seal, reducing the risk of contamination, evaporation or accidental leaks. The high production standard and high quality materials ensure complete compatibility of the product with automatic analysis systems and with the different sample collection and treatment methods. The clearly visible marking and compact dimensions make handling easy even during intensive and repeated operations, while the transparency of the tube facilitates visual verification during centrifugation or transport of the sample. The cap sealing system, intuitive and safe, allows rapid and precise management even in situations of urgency or high operational flow.
Directions for Use
The Capppo Perfetto 2 ml Lithium Heparin tube is indicated for the collection of venous blood intended for biochemical analyses, serological tests and various dosages where separation of the plasma by centrifugation is necessary. The use of heparin as an anticoagulant allows you to effectively prevent clotting, ensuring the preservation of the plasma components of the blood without significant alterations of the analytical parameters. It is particularly recommended in clinical analysis laboratories, hospital departments, research centers and in contexts where the quality of the sample and the speed of processing represent key elements for the diagnostic result.
The tube is supplied sterile and ready for use, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. It can be used for monitoring patients undergoing pharmacological treatments, routine tests, periodic checks and specialist investigations, where maintaining the integrity of the plasma is fundamental for the accuracy of the results. Furthermore, thanks to its characteristics, it is perfectly functional for both manual and automated analyses.
Composition
The test tube is made of high purity, non-toxic and impact-resistant transparent medical plastic material, designed to prevent the adhesion of blood cells to the internal walls and minimize potential unwanted reactions with the sample. The perfect cap is made of superior quality polyethylene, ensuring an airtight, safe and easy to remove closure when opening or processing the sample.
The main active element contained in the test tube is heparin, supplied in the form of lithium salt. This anticoagulant is carefully dosed and uniformly distributed inside the tube, ensuring homogeneity in the sampling and mixing with the blood. Each component is produced and packaged according to rigorous hygienic-sanitary standards to guarantee the sterility and reliability of the device during use.
Contraindications
Do not use the Capper Perfetto 2 ml Lithium Heparin tube in diagnostic procedures that require other types of anticoagulants, or when allergic reactions or hypersensitivity of the patient to heparin or its derivatives are suspected or known. Use is not indicated in the presence of specific concomitant conditions that require different treatments of the blood sample, such as for coagulation tests or tests that require whole blood not treated with heparin.
Do not use on patients who have been diagnosed with particular sensitivity to the plastic substances of which the device is made. The reuse of the tube is expressly prohibited, as is its use on different patients or at different times, to minimize any risk of contamination and incorrect analytical results.
Device Safety for the Species
The Capppo Perfetto 2 ml Lithium Heparin tube has been designed to guarantee maximum safety of use for both the patient and the healthcare personnel in charge of collecting and managing blood samples. The selected manufacturing material complies with all safety regulations, not releasing toxic substances or contaminants into the collected sample. The absence of latex prevents possible hypersensitivity reactions in predisposed subjects.
During the collection, handling and transport phases, the tube maintains high structural integrity, minimizing the risk of breakages, leaks or environmental contamination. The design designed to facilitate sampling significantly reduces the risk of needlestick accidents and accidental exposure of healthcare personnel to potentially infectious biological material. All elements of the test tube are non-toxic and tested to ensure safe use in a wide range of species, ensuring compatibility in different clinical and diagnostic contexts.
Precautions
It is essential that the test tube is stored in a dry and clean place, away from direct heat sources and sunlight, to preserve the integrity of the anticoagulant and the plastic components. Before use, always check the integrity of the packaging and the presence of any signs of breakage, deformation or contamination. Use only intact and sterile tubes.
After collection, ensure that the tube is labeled immediately and accurately to avoid errors in sample identification. It is advisable to gently shake the test tube immediately after sampling to encourage correct mixing of the blood with the heparin, avoiding the formation of clots which would compromise the reliability of the analyses. Disposal must take place in accordance with current regulations regarding medical waste to avoid biological and environmental risks.
Instructions for Use
For the correct use of the Capppo Perfetto 2 ml Lithium Heparin test tube, collect blood using a sterile needle according to standard practice, transferring it immediately into the test tube until the indicated volume is reached. Be sure to seal the cap carefully to prevent spills.
Gently mix the contents by inverting the tube several times immediately after sampling, so as to ensure homogeneous distribution of the anticoagulant. Proceed with centrifugation according to times and speeds recommended by laboratory standards. After the analysis, the tube must be disposed of appropriately without reusing it, observing all safety procedures relating to biological materials.
Use and Collection Program
The tubes are ideal for daily use in laboratory environments, in routine sampling and in serial sample collection, thanks to the 2 ml capacity which allows you to carry out several tests on a single sample. It is possible to use them for both single and multiple collections, programming the samples according to the specific diagnostic needs of the patient and the indications of the responsible clinician.
Their versatility also makes them suitable for collection at different times of the day, maintaining the stability of the sample for the time necessary for subsequent analyses. The continuous use of these tubes guarantees standardization of the process and the results obtained.
Target Species
This test tube is designed for use in the human field, but its non-toxic, safety and sterility characteristics also make it suitable for the collection of blood samples in the veterinary field, subject to evaluation of the specific volume and procedure needs by healthcare personnel or veterinary laboratories. The use can concern adults and children, as well as small animal species, ensuring uniformity in the treatment of the sample and in the quality of the results.
