How BHT Tubes Protect Blood Lipids from Oxidative Stress
19 Jan 2026
Between collection and analysis, biological samples undergo multiple stress factors that can alter their composition. Lipids are especially vulnerable: in standard tubes, free radicals can react with lipid species and trigger peroxidation, generating artifacts that compromise quantitative accuracy. The infographic below illustrates this phenomenon. In a regular tube, free radicals present in the blood interact […]
