BD Vacutainer® PST™ II tubes are specially designed plasma tubes with separation gel for clinical chemistry diagnostics. They contain spray-dried lithium heparin or sodium heparin as an anticoagulant and enable rapid and reliable collection of gel-based plasma . The new PST™ II acrylic gel forms a stable separation layer between plasma and blood cells during centrifugation. This significantly reduces fibrin residue and cellular material, improving plasma purity and enhancing sample quality—ideal for routine and specialized analysis.

Further information
During centrifugation, the separating gel migrates upwards, reliably separating the cellular components from the plasma. The tubes should be stored at 4–25 °C and should not be pre-chilled or refrigerated during centrifugation to ensure a stable gel barrier. Best results are achieved at a centrifuge temperature between 20–25 °C .
Centrifugation conditions:
Standard: 1300–2000 xg for 10 minutes at 18–25 °C
Alternatively: 3000 xg for 5 minutes at 18–25 °C (according to BD study VS 7513)
