Following Desheng to Distinguish the Differences Between the Coagulant Suspension and the Coagulant Powder in the Blood Collection Tube

I believe that many people have experienced that after a blood test in the hospital, the doctor will tell you to wait for a period of time to come back for the report. This is because the collected blood needs to be stored for a long time before it can be completely coagulated. If it not clot completely,the detection results might be fault.But at the same time, the time is naturally extended, and the efficiency becomes lower. At this time, blood coagulants came into being, which not only ensured the accuracy of test results to a large extent, but also slowed down the time of blood coagulation and improved efficiency.

As an additive for blood collection tubes, blood coagulants play an important role. Compared with the past water bath heating blood coagulation, it can quickly and stably coagulate blood, and is less affected by the ambient temperature. It can be operated in large quantities with high efficiency. However, because there are two types of coagulant, suspension and coagulation powder, it needs to be distinguished.

In fact, whether it is a coagulant suspension or a coagulant powder, both have their own advantages. For storage and transportation, the coagulant powder has more advantages, and it is not easy to cause quality problems such as damage and leakage during transportation. The advantage of the coagulant suspension is that it can be directly added and sprayed into the test tube during use, which is conducive to saving time.

Coagulants are not formulated into a real solution, but as a suspension, which is different from anticoagulants. Since anticoagulants such as EDTA and heparin are soluble in water, they appear as solutions. The state exists in water with the particle size of molecules or ions.

The composition of the coagulant will be more complicated, the water solubility is not as strong as that of the anticoagulant, and it is dispersed in the solvent in the form of small particles. Although both the coagulant suspension and the coagulant powder can play the role of blood anticoagulation, special attention should be paid to shaking well before use, otherwise the blood will be in a state of incomplete coagulation, which will affect the detection effect.

Desheng Biochemical is committed to the R&D and production of blood collection tube additives, constantly innovating and keeping pace with the times. It has its own place in both foreign and domestic markets. The quality of its products is tested and controlled by a professional team, not only coagulants, but also coagulant powders. There are two products of high-efficiency coagulation powder, as well as serum separation gel, EDTA, heparin and other products, there are as many as a dozen kinds, which are convenient for customers to choose.
