Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- See individual tests.
- Preparation
- Do not draw from an arm with a heparin lock or heparinized catheter.
- Collection
- Citrated plasma samples should be collected by double centrifugation. Blood should be collected in a blue-top tube containing 3.2% buffered sodium citrate.1 Evacuated collection tubes must be filled to completion to ensure a proper blood to anticoagulant ratio.2,3 The sample should be mixed immediately by gentle inversion at least six times to ensure adequate mixing of the anti-coagulant with the blood. A discard tube is not required prior to collection of coagulation samples except when using a winged blood collection device (i.e., "butterfly"), in which case a discard tube should be used.4,5 When non-citrate tubes are collected for other tests, collect sterile and nonadditive (red-top) tubes prior to citrate (blue-top) tubes. Any tube containing an alternate anticoagulant should be collected after the blue-top tube. Gel-barrier tubes and serum tubes with clot initiators should also be collected after the citrate tubes. Centrifuge for 10 minutes and carefully remove 2/3 of the plasma using a plastic transfer pipette, being careful not to disturb the cells. Deliver to a plastic transport tube, cap and recentifuge for 10 minutes. Use a second plastic pipette to remove plasma, staying clear of the platelets at the bottom of the tube. Transfer the plasma into a Labcorp PP transpak frozen purple tube with screw cap (Labcorp No. 49482). Freeze immediately and maintain frozen until tested. To avoid delays in turnaround time when requesting multiple tests on frozen samples, please submit separate frozen specimens for each test requested. It is important to centrifuge blood samples for plasma collection immediately after collection to separate the plasma from the blood cells. If immediate centrifugation is not possible, collected blood specimens should be kept on ice and centrifuged within an hour. Serum: If a red-top tube is used, transfer separate serum to a plastic transport tube. Please print and use the Volume Guide for Coagulation Testing to ensure proper draw volume.

- Method
- Immunoassay (IA) • Photo-Optical Clot Detection
- Collection
- Centrifuge light blue-top tube 15 minutes at approximately 1500 g within 60 minutes of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, taking care to avoid the WBC/platelet buffy layer and place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet-poor plasma into a new plastic vial. Plasma must be free of platelets (<10,000/mcL). Freeze immediately and ship on dry ice.

- Plasma (preferred): Centrifuge light blue-top tube 15 minutes at approximately 1500 x g within 60 minutes of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, taking care to avoid the WBC/platelet buffy layer and place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet-poor plasma into a new plastic vial. Plasma must be free of platelets (<10,000/mcL). Serum: Centrifuge a red-top tube (no gel) or serum separator tube 15 minutes at approximately 1500 g within 24 hours of collection. Transfer serum into a plastic specimen vial.

- Whole blood sample is for the Factor V Mutation Analysis and Prothrombin (Factor II) Mutation Analysis. Platelet-poor plasma is for remaining tests. Platelet-poor plasma: Centrifuge light blue-top tube 15 minutes at approximately 1500 x g within 60 minutes of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, taking care to avoid the WBC/platelet buffy layer and place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet-poor plasma into four plastic vials. Plasma must be free of platelets (<10,000/mcL). Freeze immediately and ship on dry ice.

Quest Diagnostics catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Chromogenic • Clotting Assay • Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) • Immunoassay (IA) • Immunoturbidimetric • Polymerase Chain Reaction & Detection
- Collection
- Whole blood sample is for the Factor V Mutation Analysis and Prothrombin (Factor II) Mutation Analysis. Serum sample is for the Homocysteine. Red-top tubes: Place the specimen in a refrigerator or ice bath for 30 minutes after collection. Centrifuge the specimen as soon as possible after complete clot formation has taken place. Transfer the serum to a plastic screw-capped vial. Barrier gel separator tubes: Place the specimen in a refrigerator for 30 minutes after collection. Centrifuge the specimen as soon as possible after complete clot formation has taken place. Do not place barrier tubes in an ice bath as freezing may prevent the barrier gel from adequately separating serum from cells. Platelet-poor plasma is for remaining tests. Platelet-poor plasma: Centrifuge light blue-top tube 15 minutes at approximately 1500 x g within 60 minutes of collection. Using a plastic pipette, remove plasma, taking care to avoid the WBC/platelet buffy layer and place into a plastic vial. Centrifuge a second time and transfer platelet-poor plasma into four plastic vials. Plasma must be free of platelets (<10,000/mcL). Freeze immediately and ship on dry ice. Serum and plasma must remain frozen during storage and shipment. All requests for coagulation assays should include a brief patient history and other pertinent clinical information.

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
