Applications and Experiments for the Serum Gel Vacuum Tube
The tube is used where a test needs serum. Its vacuum draws a 4 ml blood sample, the clot activator starts clotting, and on centrifugation the gel settles between the clot and the serum, so the serum can be taken off cleanly for analysis on the bench or in an analyser.
- B.Sc. MLT and DMLT clinical biochemistry: preparing serum for practical analyses of routine chemistry parameters.
- Phlebotomy training: practising collection, inversion and labelling of serum tubes while wearing Gloves Exam Latex Without Powder.
- Discarding used needles in a Sharp Container Leak Proof Plastic immediately after collection.
- Nursing programmes: specimen collection and laboratory request procedures.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one 4 ml PET vacuum tube with gel and clot activator, sealed by its vacuum cap, as shown in the table. Centrifuges, tourniquets and storage tubes for separated serum are separate items, and any of them can be listed on the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Serum gel tubes can be quoted for a single class practical or for the routine consumption of a training laboratory. Science Lab Supplies sets out the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity stated in your request, and plain or EDTA tubes can be included.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Tube Vacuum Serum Gel used for?
It is used for serum collection. The clot activator helps the blood clot inside the 4 ml tube, and the gel forms a layer between clot and serum once the tube has been centrifuged.
How does it differ from the plain vacuum tube?
This tube holds 4 ml and contains a gel with clot activator. The Vacuum Tube, Plain/Dry holds 6 ml and has no additive. Both are PET tubes with vacuum seal caps, stored between 2 and 30 °C.
Does the tube need a centrifuge?
Yes. Serum is separated from the clot during centrifugation, when the gel forms the barrier between them. A centrifuge is therefore needed, and Science Lab Supplies can quote a laboratory centrifuge in India on the same order as the tubes.
Who supplies the Tube Vacuum Serum Gel?
These serum tubes are supplied by Science Lab Supplies, which works from Ambala, India, and prepares quotations for diagnostic training labs, colleges and distributors, and can combine them with other vacuum tubes and centrifuges on one order.
