months, if they are frozen
within 24 hours after collection and if repeated freeze-thaw cycles are avoided.
Lipemic or frozen samples which become turbid after thawing, must be clarified
by centrifugation prior to testing. Specimens should be free of particulate
matter. Normal procedures for
collecting cerebrospinal fluid may be used for samples to be analyzed by this
method. CSF samples should be as

frozen. Samples can be stored at below -20 °C for up to one month, if they are
frozen within 24 hours after collection and if repeated freeze-thaw cycles are
avoided. Each CSF sample must be centrifuged prior to testing.
If paired serum/plasma
and CSF samples are to be analyzed, they should be drawn simultaneously.
Normal procedures for
collecting urine may be used for samples to be analyzed by this method.
Do not use collection devices containing preservatives. Urine samples
(random and timed urine collections) should be as fresh as possible (stored no
more than three days at 2 ? 8 °C). Urine samples which have been stored frozen

COLLECTION
Specimen Type: Serum
Drawing Requirements:
Draw blood in a plain red top or SST tube. Spin down and send 1 mL

Cause for Rejection: QNS, specimen
collected in the wrong tube, patient has revived a vitamin B(12) injection
within the last week, unlabeled specimen and specimen that are older than 2
days or any that have not been stored refrigerated. Excessive hemolysis or
lipemia should be avoided.
Specimen Handling/Stability:
Specimen should not be stored at room temperature for more than 1 hour.
Centrifuge and pour serum into a screw top plastic transport vial and
refrigerate in a timely manner.
Specimen Storage and

Synonyms: Serum Iron, Fe+3
Panel/Profile
Component: A total Iron is included in an IRON IBC or an IRON BIDING
study.
Patient Preparation: None
SPECIMEN COLLECTION
Specimen Type: Serum
Drawing Requirements:
Draw blood in a gold SST or plain red serum tube. Allow the specimen to clot
for 30 minutes prior to spinning. Serum, sodium heparin plasma, and lithium heparin
plasma are also acceptable specimen although serum is
preferred.
Minimum Volume: 0.5 mL
Cause for
Rejection: Unlabeled specimen, QNS, specimen drawn in wrong tube, excessive
hemolysis, excessive icterus. Blood collection tubes
containing EDTA, a strong chelator of metal ions, sodium citrate, or a
combination of potassium oxalate and sodium fluoride should not be
used.
Specimen
Handling/Stability: Serum and plasma specimens should be separated from
cells within 2 hours after venipuncture. Separated
specimens are stable for 4 days at room temperature and up to 7 days at 2 ?
8 ºC. For longer storage, specimens may be frozen at -20 ºC for up to 2
months. Specimens should be free of particulate matter. To
prevent the appearance of fibrin in serum samples, complete clot formation
should take place before centrifugation. Clotting time may be increased due to
thrombolytic or anticoagulant therapy.
Specimen Storage Stability: Samples are
maintained and saved in the laboratory for 7 days at 4 OC.
