Currently, most vacuum blood collection tubes require some form of surface treatment or lubrication to improve their processability and functionality. Based on the usage and safety of the product, water-soluble silicification agents are commonly used. Therefore, the following will focus on introducing what water-soluble silicification agents are, as well as their properties and functions.
The biggest function of water-soluble silicification agents is to perform silicification treatment on the inner wall of the suction tube, which refers to the treatment of the silicification solution on the clean or dry inner wall surface of the test tube by spraying or dipping. Then dry it to improve the adhesion of the inner wall surface, which generally makes the test tube smooth and not rough, and does not affect the additives or blood inside the test tube. In addition, due to its non-ionic surfactant, it can effectively react and react. Its components include silica powder, which can quickly disperse blood and prevent hemolysis and wall hanging.
During use, first take 0.5-1 part of the silicification agent, then add 100 parts of pure water to prepare a 0.5-1% aqueous solution, stir and mix thoroughly, and contact it around the test tube. Furthermore, the test tube can be directly soaked in the prepared solution and left for a short period of time before being taken out. After taking it out, drain the test tube with the mouth facing downwards and place it in an oven at 90-105 ℃ for drying and use.
As mentioned above, water-soluble silicification agents have hydrolytic stability, so it is important to keep the utensils clean and avoid impurities during use and preparation, which can cause poor appearance and performance of the test tube and affect overall quality. In addition, using purified water for preparation is simple to operate, cost-effective, and can effectively improve efficiency, making it a worthwhile choice for blood collection reagent products.
As a professional manufacturer of silicification agents in China, Desheng mainly sells two types of products: water-soluble silicification agents and oil silicon. You can choose to use them according to your own experimental needs. If you have any relevant intentions, please click on the website for consultation!
