BD Vacutainer® EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) blood collection tubes are used for a variety of purposes in clinical laboratories and healthcare settings due to their ability to prevent blood clotting by binding to calcium and magnesium in the blood.
The EDTA concentration in BD Vacutainer® tubes is 1.8 mg/mL of whole blood, as recommended by the ICSH (International Council Society of Haematology). The ICSH recommends dipotassium EDTA salt (K2EDTA) for haematological investigation. BD Vacutainer® plastic (PET) tubes are available with spray dried K2EDTA and K3EDTA.
