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. Analyze fresh specimens, if possible. Separated samples may be stored at 2 to 8°C for up 7 days and frozen at -10°C for up to 14 days. Stored specimens must be inspected for particulates.
