| SPECIMEN REQUIREMENTS | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Specimen | Specimen Volume (min) | Specimen Type | Specimen Container | Transport Environment |
| Preferred | 1 mL (0.3 mL) | Serum | Clot Activator (Red Top, No-Gel) | Room Temperature |
| Alternate 1 | 1 mL (0.3 mL) | Plasma | Lithium Heparin (Dark Green Top / No-Gel) | Room Temperature |
| Alternate 2 | 1 mL (0.3 mL) | Plasma | EDTA (Lavender Top) | Room Temperature |
| Instructions | Specimen Type: Red-top tube, lavender-top (EDTA) tube OR green-top (heparin) tube. DO NOT USE A GEL-BARRIER TUBE. The use of gel-barrier tubes is not recommended due to slow absorption of the drug by the gel. Depending on the specimen volume and storage time, the decrease in drug level due to absorption may be clinically significant. Specimen Storage: Maintain specimen at room temperature. Specimen Collection: Transfer separated serum or plasma to a plastic transport tube. For therapeutic monitoring, collect specimen immediately prior to next dose. Specimen Stability: Ambient: 67 hours, Refrigerated : 14 days, Frozen: 14 days |
