®
tubes are used for the collection of capillary blood from skin puncture. BD Microtainer
®
tubes come with a variety of additives for
various tests, have visible fill lines and are all colour-coded as standard BD Vacutainer
®
tubes making them easy to identify. BD Microtainer
®
tubes are
also available for light sensitive analytes. BD Microtainer
®
labels are available from BD Customer Services Department, please contact 01865

BD Microtainer
®
tubes with BD Microgard
TM
closure have an integrated collection scoop, along with a wider diameter (8mm) for ease of collection and
improved mixing ensuring a quality sample is collected. Additionally, the BD Microgard
TM
closure helps protect the healthcare worker from exposure
to potentially infected blood with the “twist assist” cap which reduces the risk of splatter upon removal of the cap. BD Microtainer
®
tubes with BD
Microgard
TM
closure can also be used with a tube extender to increase the length to 75mm, for use in 13mm x 75mm racks.
