Container

Red Top Tube

Collection Instructions

Container/Tube: Gold top or Red top tube
Specimen: 0.5 mL serum
Transport Temperature: Refrigerate serum
Stability: 48 hrs Refrigerated, if longer please freeze serum.

Special Instructions
If a newborn child has a significantly low platelet count and the physician suspects neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia purpura (NAIT), a serum platelet antibody test should be ordered on both the mother and the child (patient). The work-up for NAIT is best accomplished by not only evaluation for platelet reactive antibodies, but also typing maternal and paternal platelet glycoproteins.
