Siliconised Glass Tubes
Activated partial thromboplastin times (APTT) for monitoring heparin therapy for venous thromboembolism tended to be inappropriately short if blood was collected in commercially available evacuated glass tubes. Five types of evacuated tubes marketed under the trade names Vacutainer and Venoject were examined. The APTT of heparinised blood collected in these tubes correlated poorly (r = 004 to r...

متن کاملAuto-ejection of liquid drops from capillary tubes
Wicking flow inside capillary tubes can attain considerable momentum so as to produce a liquid jet at the end of the tube. Auto-ejection refers to the formation of droplets at the tip of such a jet. Experimental observations suggest that a tapering nozzle at the end of the capillary tube is necessary for auto-ejection; it has never been reported for a straight tube. Besides, most experimental r...
متن کاملHigh-density small-volume gel loading directly from capillary tubes.
A technique has been developed for high lane density loading of small-volume DNA samples in a horizontal agarose gel. This technique has been investigated with a simple hand-held tool that is made to couple to sample output from a new capillary-based sample automation system. The approach consists of piercing the gel with pressurized sample capillaries and relieving the pressure shortly before ...
متن کاملOSHA on phlebotomy disposal.
he Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently issued a safety and health information bulletin explaining its policy on the disposal of contaminated needles and blood tube holders following blood-drawing procedures. The bulletin is not a standard or regulation and creates no new legal obligations. Rather, it is advisory in nature and is intended to assist employers in providin...
