Capillary Heparin Tube Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Capillary Heparin Tube (Product Code: SLE/CL/44) is a heparin-coated glass capillary tube, 75mm long with an inner diameter of 1.15mm, used to draw small volumes of blood for several laboratory tests. The heparin lining keeps the sample fluid after a skin puncture, and the glass bore gives a clear view of the blood column, which is useful for packed cell volume readings. The tubes come packed in glass boxes of 100 each and are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a lab glassware supplier in India for hospital, clinic and teaching laboratories.

Specifications

Typical Use

The classic application is the micro-haematocrit test. Blood from a finger prick is allowed to run into the tube until it is roughly three-quarters full, the dry end is pushed into sealant, and the tube is placed in a haematocrit centrifuge with the sealed end facing outward. After spinning, the height of the red cell column is compared with the total column on a reading chart. Heparinised capillaries are also used to collect small samples for other methods that specify heparin.

Because the tubes are glass, wear gloves, press them into sealant with a gentle twisting motion rather than force, and discard any cracked tube. Put used or broken tubes straight into a sharps container. Any laboratory centrifuge in India intended for this test should have a capillary rotor, as standard tube buckets cannot hold these tubes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What material are the tubes made from?
Glass, with a heparin coating on the inside.

What size are they?
Length 75mm and inner diameter 1.15mm. The source listing uses a decimal comma, so the diameter appears there as 1,15mm.

How are the tubes packed?
In glass boxes containing 100 tubes each. Ask us about carton quantities for larger orders.

Which heparin and what amount is used?
The heparin type and quantity are not stated in our listing. Please contact us if your test method specifies them.

Can these tubes be reused?
No. Once filled with blood and sealed or spun, they should be discarded as sharps waste.

What details help you prepare a quotation?
The number of boxes, the delivery address and whether you also need sealant, lancets or a centrifuge. We quote for India and international markets.
