Sample Type
ACD anticoagulated whole blood or bone marrow
Collect
Yellow top (ACD)
Adult 8.5 mL size x2
Pediatric 3 mL x1 acceptable (see minimum volume information)
Amount to Collect
Adult 17 mL blood or marrow
Pediatric 8.5 mL blood or marrow (see minimum volume information)
If these volumes are problematic please contact ITL at 6-3887 to discuss test needs and sample requirements.
Preferred Volume

Note: Assuming a normal leukocyte count the 3 mL minimum sample size is only sufficient for a single study, multiple subsets will require additional sample. Please contact ITL at 6-3887 to discuss.
Remarks
Fill ACD tubes completely. Obtain ACD tube from Specimen Receiving. If collected with other chimerism tests and blood count is low, collect 2 yellow top tubes.
Note: Assuming a normal leukocyte count the 3 mL minimum sample size is only sufficient for a single study, multiple subsets will require additional sample. Please contact ITL at 6-3887 to discuss.
