I think either is correct when used in this way. You can use nonheparinized micro hematocrit tube if filling from LTT, or a heparinized tube if filling from a fresh sample in syringe (or bleeding nail) and you’ll either end up with plasma or serum, right? The packed red blood cells % would be the same after centrifugation in either case...
Deirdre Bodrick it’s looking for signs of infection or dehydration by measuring hydration and blood proteins. Some blood proteins increase if infection is present for example.
