c- For Cytogenetic and Molecular Cytogenetic analyses; it should be transferred in heparinized tubes and transferred in sterile surgical gloves at room temperature within 24-48 hours. If there is no heparinized tube, 0.2 ml of heparin is drawn into a sterile syringe, the syringe is washed and blood is drawn into it without discarding this heparin. After the blood is drawn, the syringe is turned upside down and shaken several times, the needle is closed without twisting and the syringe is sent in a sterile glove.
