Potassium edta collection tubes

Manufactured by Sarstedt

Potassium EDTA collection tubes are laboratory equipment used for the collection and preservation of blood samples. The primary function of these tubes is to prevent blood clotting by containing potassium EDTA, an anticoagulant that binds to calcium ions in the blood.

Algae Motor Administration in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Eight-week-old male CD-1 mice were euthanized at 24 hours after oral administration of algae motors in 500 μl of PBS at a concentration of 1 × 107/ml. For the comprehensive chemistry panel, aliquots of blood were allowed to coagulate, and the serum was collected by centrifugation. To obtain blood cell counts, whole blood was collected into potassium EDTA collection tubes (Sarstedt). Analyses were conducted by the UCSD Animal Care Program Diagnostic Services Laboratory. To perform the histological analysis, different portions of the GI tract and major organs were sectioned and stained with H&E (Leica Biosystems), followed by imaging using a Hamamatsu Nanozoomer 2.0-HT slide scanning system.

Algae Motors Metabolic Impact

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were euthanized at 24 h after oral administration of TAP medium or encapsulated algae motors (1 × 106). For the comprehensive metabolic panel, aliquots of blood were allowed to coagulate, and the serum was collected by centrifugation. To obtain blood cell counts, whole blood was collected into potassium EDTA collection tubes (Sarstedt). For long-term safety, mice were administered algae motors in a capsule on days 0, 2, 4, and 6, and they were euthanized for analysis on day 7. Lab tests were performed by the UCSD Animal Care Program Diagnostic Services Laboratory. To perform the histological analysis, different sections of GI tract and major organs were sectioned and stained with H&E (Leica Biosystems), followed by imaging using a Hamamatsu Nanozoomer 2.0-HT slide scanning system.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
