Integrity of serum samples is changed by modified centrifugation conditions

Background Serum samples should be centrifuged for at least 10 min at 1300–2500 × g . Changed centrifugation conditions could compromise sample quality. The objective of this study was to compare the serum quality and turnaround time (TAT) using different centrifugation conditions. Methods The study was done in four different periods (A, B, C and D) at different conditions: for 10, 5 and 7 (A, B and C, respectively) at 2876 × g , and 7 (D) min...
