Perform venipuncture using your institution's recommended procedure (see CLSI Guidelines GP41Ed7 for more info). Hold the collection tube vertically below the donor's arm during blood collection. Allow at least 10 seconds for a complete blood draw to take place. Ensure that the blood has stopped flowing into the tube before removing the tube from the holder.

Transfer the cleared serum to the serum transfer tube provided and adhere the barcode label with collection date and DOB before packing.
