Johns Hopkins Medicine

For CBC + Chem istry from 1 specimen,
use 1 Green lithium heparin tube (G) .
Johns Hopkins
Department of Molecular and
Comparative Pathobiology
Otherwise, use lavender EDTA tube (L)
for hematology, and
any serum tube (Y) for chemistry
(gel separators are recommended)

SPECIMEN REQUIREMENTS
G Green - Heparin
E Eppendorf
L Lavender - EDTA
Y Yellow
Gel separator tubes yield cleaner
serum or plasma specimens.

Specimen ID Numbers (required):
Special Requests, including tests to be prioritized:
* Required serum or plasm a volume is about half of the required blood volume for chemistry tests.
Serum or plasma specimens should be clear yellow (non hemolyzed). Hemolysis interferes with many tests.
There is an additional charge for the lab to separate serum/plasma from whole blood.
