Message: | In the normal state, serum separation gel is used in vitro blood testing, but many people do not know whether the serum separation gel is harmful to human body. In fact, we can judge whether it is harmful to human body from several aspects.
First of all, we can first look at the components of serum separation gel. The components of serum separation gel include polyolefin, polyester or propylene, silica powder, thixotropic agent and stabilizer. When these materials come into contact with blood, the hydrolytic resistance of the products is not harmful, but the poor anti hydrolysis ability will have a certain impact on the contact substances. But now it is generally used to use the serum separation gel with better anti hydrolysis ability.
It can be seen from the above that serum separation gel will not affect the human body. However, if there are foreign bodies, abnormal smell, abnormal color, etc. in the serum separation gel, or it has passed the effective use period, it should not be used as far as possible, because there is no guarantee whether it will affect the human body. In addition, there will be some differences in the process and raw materials between the manufacturers of serum separation gel. If there are multiple brands of serum separation gel, please do not mix them, which will cause the defect of serum separation gel, and then affect the results of blood collection test and the reaction of contact substances.1 |
