Standard Veterinary Blood Collection Needles

XINLE Standard Veterinary Blood Collection Needles are precision-engineered for routine venous and peripheral micro-blood sampling in companion animals. Available in three color-coded specifications (0.55×36.5 mm, 0.70×36.5 mm, and 0.80×36.5 mm) for cats, small, medium, and large dogs, these needles allow blood to flow naturally under animal venous pressure with minimal residual blood loss and reduced tissue trauma.

Product Overview

Manufactured under strict ISO 13485 quality management systems, the XINLE Standard Veterinary Blood Collection Needle provides veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, and diagnostic laboratories with a gentle, dependable venipuncture solution.

Unlike high-vacuum suction methods that can collapse small or fragile vessels, this needle allows blood to flow smoothly and naturally driven by the animal’s own venous pressure. With an ultra-sharp bevel tip and a low-dead-space hub design, it delivers smooth blood sampling with minimal discomfort and minimal specimen residue.

Key Features & Clinical Advantages

  • Natural Pressure-Regulated Flow: Blood flow is driven naturally by the animal’s venous pressure, providing a smooth and gentle collection process while preventing mechanical vein collapse.
  • Ultra-Sharp Low-Trauma Tip: Precision-ground stainless steel needle point ensures swift, clean penetration, significantly reducing tissue trauma and animal stress.
  • Minimal Residual Blood Loss: Internal hub geometry minimizes dead volume, ensuring that small blood volumes are transferred completely into collection tubes without wastage.
  • Breed & Weight-Calibrated Sizing: Clear color-coded hubs allow veterinary technicians to select the optimal needle gauge instantly based on patient size:
    0.55 × 36.5 mm (Purple): Optimized for Cats and Small Dogs (<5 kg)
    0.70 × 36.5 mm (Black): Optimized for Medium-Sized Dogs (5–15 kg)
    0.80 × 36.5 mm (Green): Optimized for Large Dogs (>15 kg)
  • Versatile Sampling Modalities: Suitable for standard peripheral venipuncture as well as peripheral micro-sampling from the ear margin or paw pad.

Clinical Veterinary Applications

These standard blood collection needles are widely utilized across veterinary practices, reference laboratories, and pet diabetes management:

  • Routine Veterinary Examinations: General health checkups, pre-anesthetic profiles, and wellness screenings in dogs and cats.
  • Clinical Hematology & Chemistry: Routine blood draws paired with veterinary micro collection tubes.
  • Pet Blood Glucose Monitoring: Ideal for pet owners and clinicians obtaining micro-samples from the ear margin or paw pad for diabetic glucose test strips.
  • Diagnostic Reference Laboratories: Standardized sample collection for organ function panels, infectious disease serology, and electrolyte analysis.

How to Use Standard Veterinary Blood Needles

Follow standard clinical handling protocols during veterinary blood sampling:

  1. Select Specification: Choose the appropriate needle size (0.55×36.5 mm, 0.70×36.5 mm, or 0.80×36.5 mm) based on the animal’s weight and anatomical collection site.
  2. Aseptic Preparation: Disinfect the target sampling area (e.g., marginal ear vein, paw pad, or cephalic vein) and allow it to air-dry completely.
  3. Perform Puncture: Remove the protective sheath and gently insert the needle bevel-up into the target vessel or peripheral capillary bed.
  4. Sample Collection: Allow blood to flow naturally along the needle hub into a micro collection tube or directly onto a diagnostic test strip.
  5. Hemostasis & Disposal: Withdraw the needle gently, apply gentle pressure with sterile gauze to achieve hemostasis, and immediately dispose of the used needle into a sharps biohazard container.

Frequently Asked Questions

A: Common clinical collection sites include the ear margin (marginal ear vein), paw pad, and standard peripheral veins (such as the cephalic or saphenous veins) as recommended by veterinary clinical protocols.

A: The ultra-sharp, multi-beveled needle tip is specifically engineered to minimize tissue trauma and pain during penetration. It provides a swift, gentle puncture that reduces animal flinching while ensuring adequate blood volume yield.
