Serum separation gel is a viscous fluid that can separate serum and blood clots. It is physiologically inert and insoluble in water. The structure contains a large number of hydrogen bonds, which form a network structure with excellent thixotropic properties and isolation properties. Under the centrifugal force, the network structure will be destroyed. If the thixotropic property is strong, the fluid can be aggregated to form a network structure in a short time, so as to achieve the purpose of isolation.
Serum separation gel is mostly used in vacuum blood collection tubes to isolate blood clots and serum. The yellow blood collection tubes used in hospitals will contain serum separation gel. To ensure the accuracy of serum separation gel separation, it is necessary to rely on its performance and specific gravity.
Nowadays, although many different manufacturers are producing serum separation gels, it is difficult to stabilize the specific gravity control. The conventional specific gravity needs to be controlled between 1.045-1.065g/cm3, just as the specific gravity of serum separation gels produced by Desheng is controlled at 1.055g/cm3.
Generally, after centrifuging the blood in the separation gel accelerator tube, it will be divided into three layers, the top layer is light yellow liquid serum with a specific gravity between 1.02-1.03. The bottom layer is a blood clot with a specific gravity within 1.08-1.09. By comparison, it can be seen that the specific gravity of blood clot is much higher than that of serum, while the specific gravity of serum separation gel is between 1.050-1.060, which is just between the two. The serum blood clot is divided into upper and lower layers by centrifugation.

The quality of the serum separation gel determines the separation effect. If the quality of the blood collection tube separation gel is poor and the specific gravity does not meet the requirements, it will definitely affect the effect of separating the serum, and it is easy to make the separation gel and serum merge together.
In addition to the specific gravity of the serum separation gel, there are also requirements for the viscosity. Between 100,000 and 300,000 cps, the viscosity of the separation gel within this range is conducive to thixotropy and isolation. It should be noted that the viscosity is affected by the ambient temperature. If it is cold in winter, and high viscosity will lead to difficulty in adding glue. In summer, if the viscosity is low, it will lead to an increase in fluidity, which is not suitable for long-term storage. The general requirement is to use a lower viscosity serum separation gel in winter and a higher viscosity serum separation gel in summer.
Serum separation gel is an important material for the preservation, transmission and transfer of high-quality serum and blood samples in clinical tests. It must be produced by manufacturers with reliable quality.
