Rupa Health

At Rupa, blood tests vary in collection methods: self-collection uses finger pricks, while others require a phlebotomist for venipuncture.

🔍Overview: Blood Test Types

Plasma tests use anticoagulant-treated tubes to collect the liquid portion of blood. No centrifuge is needed, unlike whole blood or serum.

A whole blood test uses an anticoagulant in the collection tube, no centrifuge is needed, and all blood components remain for analysis.

Serum tests use clotted blood, separating serum via centrifuge. This process distinguishes serum from whole blood and plasma.
