Veterinary Clot Activator Tubes (Canine & Feline Serum Separation)

XINLE Veterinary Clot Activator Tubes are micro-volume blood collection tubes specially engineered for rapid blood coagulation and high-clarity serum separation in companion animals (dogs and cats). Available in 0.2 mL to 1 mL specifications (10×45 mm), these tubes accelerate sample preparation time, providing reliable, high-quality serum for routine clinical chemistry, organ function panels, and serological examinations.

Product Overview

Manufactured in ISO 13485-compliant facilities, the XINLE Veterinary Clot Activator Tube is designed to meet the specialized pre-analytical demands of veterinary clinics and animal diagnostic laboratories. Pre-coated with a high-performance clot activator, the tube rapidly triggers the intrinsic coagulation cascade in canine and feline blood samples, significantly shortening clotting time before centrifugation and optimizing diagnostic workflow efficiency.

Key Features & Advantages

  • Accelerated Clot Formation: High-efficiency clot activator promotes rapid, uniform coagulation, reducing pre-centrifugation waiting time compared to plain serum tubes.
  • High-Clarity Serum Yield: Delivers clean, fibrin-free serum specimens with minimal hemolysis, ensuring high reproducibility for sensitive clinical biochemistry and serology analyzers.
  • Tailored for Companion Animals: Micro-volume options (0.2 mL–1 mL) with a compact 10 × 45 mm profile are ideal for small blood volume draws from dogs, cats, and small exotic pets.
  • Leak-Proof & Secure Sealing: Precision-molded tube body and cap ensure tight, leak-proof closure, preventing sample contamination during transit between clinics and reference laboratories.
  • Consistent Clotting Performance: Standardized additive formulation ensures stable, reproducible clot contraction across varying patient hematocrits.

Clinical Veterinary Applications

These micro clot activator tubes are widely utilized in veterinary hospitals, emergency clinics, and animal diagnostic laboratories for canine and feline health management:

  • Clinical Biochemistry Panels: Liver function (ALT, AST, ALP), kidney function (BUN, Creatinine), total protein, and albumin assays.
  • Serum Electrolyte Analysis: Potassium (K⁺), Sodium (Na⁺), Chloride (Cl⁻), Calcium (Ca²⁺), and Phosphorus testing.
  • Serology & Immunology: Infectious disease antibody titers, viral antigen/antibody screening, and vaccine response monitoring.
  • Routine Health Screening: Pre-anesthetic wellness profiles, geriatric screenings, and chronic disease therapeutic monitoring in pets.

How to Use Veterinary Clot Activator Tubes

Follow standard clinical handling protocols during veterinary venipuncture:

  1. Collection: Draw blood from the canine or feline patient using a suitable sterile needle or syringe.
  2. Dispensing: Transfer the required blood volume (0.2 mL to 1 mL) into the tube along the inner tube wall.
  3. Inversion Mixing: Gently invert the tube 5 to 8 times immediately after dispensing to ensure thorough dispersion of the clot activator throughout the blood. (Do not shake vigorously).
  4. Clotting Period: Allow the tube to stand upright at room temperature until complete clot formation is achieved.
  5. Centrifugation: Centrifuge according to standard veterinary laboratory speed and time protocols to harvest the clear serum supernatant for downstream analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions

A: The Veterinary Clot Activator Tube is specifically designed for collecting blood from companion animals (primarily dogs and cats) and accelerating the blood clotting process to produce high-quality serum quickly for clinical chemistry, organ function panels, and serological examinations.

A: The clot activator coated on the inner tube wall rapidly initiates the blood coagulation cascade upon contact with the sample. This promotes faster, more uniform clot formation and retraction, allowing veterinary technicians to centrifuge the sample sooner than with untreated plain tubes.

A: This tube is optimized for dogs and cats in veterinary practices. The harvested serum is suitable for routine wellness screenings, pre-operative chemistry, electrolyte testing, liver/kidney profiles, and infectious disease serology.
