Lavender ( K2EDTA plasma).

Specimen Preparation

Conventional specimen preparation practices frequently do not fully remove platelets from plasma and contribute to elevated TGF-b measurements. Centrifuge anticoagulated whole blood within 2 hours of collection at 1500g for 10 minutes. Collect plasma and transfer to a fresh tube. Immediately centrifuge plasma at 3000g for 10 minutes. Collect plasma from upper 2/3 of tube without disturbing lower 1/3 of tube and transfer to fresh tube for storage or transport. Separate plasma from cells ASAP or within 2 hours of collection. Transfer 1 mL plasma to an ARUP standard transport tube. (Min 0.3 mL)

Storage/Transport Temperature

CRITICAL FROZEN.   Freeze <-20 C immediately. Separate specimens must be submitted when multiple tests are ordered.

Unacceptable Conditions

Contaminated, severely hemolyzed, heat-inactivated or grossly lipemic specimens.
