  • Usually done for children or neonatal.
  • Done using the Westergren tube which look similar as a pippete.
  • Sodium citrate / EDTA is used as anticoagulant.
  • 2 hours if kept at room temperature or 24 hours if refrigerated.
  • Then well mixed blood is then aspirated up to the mark 0 at the top mark.
