SAFECAP®
Self-Sealing Microhematocrit
Capillary Tubes with SAFEWRAP…
|
 |
SAFECAP®
is a unique, self-sealing capillary tube with a Mylar wrap, designed to
minimize the risk of exposure to HIV, Hepatitis, and other blood-borne
pathogens. FDA, NIOSH,
CDC and OSHA all warn of the potential risk of injury and/or infection from
bloodborne pathogens, including HIV and hepatitis B and C viruses due to
accidental breakage of glass capillary tubes.
FDA, NIOSH and OSHA all recommend “products that use a
method of sealing that does not require manually pushing one end of the tube
into putty to form a plug.”
SAFECAP ®
meets these
recommendations from the joint safety advisory! |

Here's How SAFECAP Works:
|
-
Fill: The factory installed plug has a
channel cut into it, allowing air to escape while the tube fills.
|
 |
 |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-
Hold Vertical: The channel seals automatically when
blood touches the plug.
|
 |
- Centrifuge and Read
This simple procedure produces additional safety benefits by
eliminating normal fingertip contact, the hazards of manual sealing and
the use of contaminated sealants. It’s that simple… it’s that safe!
