Lab Only: It is recommended that tubes of blood are to be kept closed at all times and in a vertical position. It is required that the serum or plasma be physically separated from contact with cells within two hours from the time of collection. Yellow tubes should clot for 30 minutes prior to centrifugation. Separated samples are stable for up to 7 days at 20 to 25°C, at 2 to 8°C for up to 7 days, or at -20°C for up to 1 year. Stored specimens must be inspected for particulates. If present, mix and centrifuge the specimen to remove particulates prior to testing.
