A Monovette or Microvette are both _________ in the context of capillary blood collection.

• A. Centrifuge tubes
• B. Micro-containers used during skin puncture collection
• C. Lancet devices
• D. Gauze pads

Answer: (B)

Monovette and Microvette are micro-containers used during skin puncture collection. In capillary sampling, a small puncture is made with a lancet and blood is collected directly into these tiny tubes designed to hold a precise, small volume of blood. They often contain additives to preserve or anticoagulate the sample, and some are designed for easy transport and handling of capillary blood. They’re not centrifuge tubes, lancet devices, or gauze pads, which are used for different steps or purposes in the collection process.
