Specialized Tests: Ammonia levels (often light green), lactate, white cell enzymes, and TB quantiferon.
Renal/Hepatic Function: Assessing organ health.
Plasma Tests: Used for tests requiring plasma, with light green (lithium heparin + gel) separating plasma, and dark green (sodium heparin) for whole blood or plasma.
Types:
