Preferred Specimen(s)
5 mL frozen platelet-poor citrated plasma collected in a 3.2% sodium citrate (light-blue-top) tube
Minimum Volume
2.5 mL
Collection Instructions
Platelet-poor plasma: Centrifuge light blue-top tube for 15 minutes at approximately 1500 g within 60 minutes of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, taking care to avoid the WBC/platelet buffy layer and place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet-poor plasma into a new plastic vial. Plasma must be free of platelets (<10,000/uL) Freeze immediately and ship on dry ice.
