BD Vacutainer® Fluoride/Oxalate Tube

BD Vacutainer® Fluoride Glucose Tubes contain a glycolytic inhibitor and are used for glucose determinations on plasma. These tubes contain a mixture of potassium oxalate and sodium fluoride. Glucose values in unpreserved blood samples decrease quickly after collection as glucose is metabolised by the blood cells. The additives contained in BD Vacutainer® Fluoride/Oxalate will stop enzymatic activity at the glycolytic pathway.
