BackgroundThe collection of blood samples in different vacutainers can affect the result of serum lithium estimation due to the presence of distinct additives added in the blood collection vacutainer for enhancing the clot formation process. The presence of these additives has proven to interfere with laboratory results of biochemical analytes. In this case, both the pre-analytical and the analytical phases have a significant impact on the accuracy and precision of the test result. Thus, it has ...
