Commercially available blood-collection tubes may be contaminated with endotoxin (315 +/- 95 pg/tube) and could therefore be unsuitable for blood collection for endotoxin measurement. Plasma separation and storage are a potential source of contamination. To avoid contamination and error, we have developed new blood collection tubes that contain heparin free of endotoxin (LPS) and a gel to separ...

متن کاملSuitability of plastic collection tubes for cyclosporine measurements.
together with the results of the low ferritin patients of the previously mentioned anemic cohort (five men and eight women). In the group with ferritin values below the reference interval (,25 mg/L), 5 out of 11 men had CDTect values $20 units/L and 8 out of 18 women had CDTect values $26 units/L. Therefore, a disproportionate number of high CDTect values were observed in anemic and nonanemic p...
