Abstract

A system is described that provides for the collection of blood in Vacutainer tubes containing Liquoid (sodium polyanethol sulfonate) and for the transport of such blood to the laboratory for inoculation. The procedure is compared to one utilizing open flasks of media, and the advantages of the closed system are discussed.
