Engineered Safety – The Flexible System
It’s the individual that matters
Demographic development shows that our population is growing older which places a very specific demand
on medical care and treatment. Blood collection in particular is affected because difficult vein conditions are
increasingly noted with elderly patients. Blood collection may also be complicated from children with
very small or fragile veins.
The answer to all these challenges is the S-Monovette® with its variable collection techniques combined in one
system. As required, phlebotomists can select either the aspiration or the vacuum method.
We already know that 47.3%* of all patients are
s under 5 years, or
sover 65 years.
* Association of German Hospitals
Zahlen, Daten, Fakten 2009
This shows that gentle blood collection is essential
for maintaining optimal results.
Aspiration method
... the gentle technique for routine blood collection
The aspiration technique is the method of choice for gentle blood collection from
any vein condition and is ideal for fragile veins at risk to collapse.
Vacuum method
... always a “fresh” vacuum
Using the S-Monovette® with the vacuum technique ensures that a “fresh” vacuum
is generated immediately prior to blood collection, providing a precise
filling volume as with the aspiration method.

A safe, secure combination
The Safety-Needle or SafetyMultifly® needle is safely and
securely connected to the
S-Monovette® by a 3-pin
locking mechanism.
10
Safety-Needle – Safety for routine blood collection
The Safety-Needle is always ready for use. No need to assemble it with a needle holder. Only
pre-assembled systems like the S-Monovette® Safety-Needle provide efficient protection against
the risk of exposure likely to be caused by contaminated, re-used needle holders. Re-use of the
needle holder is excluded.
Safe puncturing
... at a recommended low angle particularly
for fragile veins.
Safety needle protector
The special needle protector of the Safety-Needle enables safe completion off
blood collection by locking the needle in the protective sleeve. Subsequently,
the complete unit is disposed of in a suitable sharps container.
Safety-Multifly® – Safety for fragile veins
Pre-assembled adapter
The S-Monovette® adapter of the Safety-Multifly® iss alreadyy assembled

Optimal packaging and material
The packaging and tubing are tailored to the requirements of blood
collection and subsequent disposal in sharps containers. The
kink-proof tubing enables trouble-free venipuncture and safe disposal
in a sharps container.
11
S-Monovette® – Convincing Arguments for a Safe System
Visible control of successful venipuncture
The first blood drop immediately enters the S-Monovette® upon
successful venipuncture with the assembled Safety-Needle, so
the phlebotomist can be sure that the vein has been punctured.
Cost savings from haemolysis rate reduction
Studies* reveal that gentle aspiration of the blood sample as is possible using the S-Monovette® or a disposable
syringe enables reduced haemolysis rates compared to blood collection with vacuum systems only. Strongly
haemolytic samples, in particular, provide erroneous laboratory results requiring repeat sampling. With the
S-Monovette® system, haemolysis rates can be reduced, resulting in the following decisive benefits:
Reduced expenditure in time and labour costs
Reduced material cost
No additional reagent cost
Sample without haemolysis
Strongly haemolytic sample

Cost savings using the Safety-Needle
140 Safety-Needles of the S-Monovette® system fit into a Multi-Safe disposal box. In comparison,
five times the number of disposal boxes are needed to discard the same quantity of needles from
vacuum systems. Consequently, using the S-Monovette® system involves significantly reduced
disposal costs. Apart from the cost savings, the system also serves to decrease waste for an
improved eco-balance.

individual requirements!
EU Code
US Code
Serum (Clotting Activator)
S-Monovettes contain beads coated with a clotting activator (silicate). As a rule, this clotting additive enables
the blood to clot within 20 to 30 minutes and the sample can be centrifuged. The beads form a layer
between the blood clot and serum during centrifugation.
Serum-Gel (Clotting Activator)
In addition to the beads, this S-Monovette® contains a polyacrylic ester gel that, due to its density, forms a
stable separating layer between the blood clot and the serum during centrifugation and serves as a barrier
during sample transport and storage. Compliance with the recommended storage conditions will keep most
parameters stable for up to 48 hours.
Plasma / Plasma-Gel (Lithium Heparin)
Heparin, at an average concentration of 16 I.U./ml, is used as an anticoagulant for plasma generation.
Heparin is coated onto beads which form a layer between the plasma and the corpuscular components
during centrifugation. The function of the plasma gel is identical to serum-gel.
Haematology (Potassium EDTA)
EDTA K3 is pre-dosed as a liquid preparation in an average concentration of 1.6 mg EDTA/ml blood.
The maximum dilution caused by the liquid preparation is lower than 1%. Although the EDTA preparation
may dry during storage, this does not in any way impair its anticoagulant effect. An S-Monovette® with
EDTA K2 and gel is available for use in molecular virus diagnostics.
Glucose Determination (Fluoride)
The S-Monovette® for glucose determination contains fluoride (1.0 mg/ml blood) as a glycolysis
inhibitor and EDTA (1.2 mg/ml blood) as an anticoagulant in a liquid preparation. The glucose
concentration in the sample is stabilised for a period of 24 hours.
Coagulation (Sodium Citrate)
Citrate, pre-dosed as a 0.106 molar solution (equivalent to 3.2% trisodium citrate), is used for all
physiological coagulation studies (e.g. Quick, PTT, TZ, Fibrinogen). A mixing ratio of 1:10 (1 part
citrate + 9 parts blood) must be strictly observed.
ESR (Sodium Citrate)
Citrate, pre-dosed as a 0.106 trisodium citrate molar solution is used for ESR determination. A mixing
ratio of 1:5 (1 part citrate + 4 parts blood) must be strictly observed. For ESR, we recommend the
S-Monovette® Sediplus® system (Westergren method) or the enclosed S-Sedivette® system (modified
Westergren method).
15
Special S-Monovette® & S-Sedivette®
S-Monovette® ThromboExact
... for suspected pseudothrombocytopenia
Pseudothrombocytopenia, a preanalytical phenomenon, describes an erroneouslyy
low thrombocyte count. Generally, pseudothrombocytopenia is caused by
thrombocyte aggregation. Early detection of this phenomenon ensures that
the diagnostic and therapeutic consequences of a thrombocytopenia
misdiagnosis are avoided. The S-Monovette® ThromboExact has
been approved to prevent the formation of thrombocyte
aggregation. Apart from the most common aggregation
caused by EDTA, multiple aggregation (e.g. heparin and/
or citrate) has also been documented. A correct thrombocyte
count is possible for up to 12 hours after blood collection.
S-Monovette® Homocysteine Z-Gel
... for homocysteine determination
Correct preanalytical conditions are critical for homocysteine determination
because erythrocytes continue to produce homocysteine in the sample after
blood collection. Non-stabilised homocysteine diffuses into the plasma
leading to a significant increase in homocysteine concentration of
approximately 10%/h in the sample material. A specially developed
d
stabiliser keeps the homocysteine concentration relatively constant
stant
for up to eight hours after blood collection at room temperature.
ure.
Centrifugation of the blood sample within this 8-hour period
results in an inert gel barrier that safely separates the serum from
the blood clot, ensuring further stability of the homocysteine values
for a total of 96 hours.
S-Monovette® for metal analysis (Lithium-Heparin)

S-Monovette® for thrombocyte function diagnostics
S-Monovette® Hirudin
Platelet inhibitors (e.g. aspirin) are used to reduce the risk of thrombosis for
hospitalised patients after surgery and also for a multitude of therapies for
out-patients. To monitor the efficiency (response/non-response) of a
platelet inhibiting pharmaceutical drug, either during its development,
in routine therapy, or to prove or exclude disorders in thrombocyte
function, hirudin has become the anticoagulant of choice. Unlike
citrate or heparin, hirudin prevents blood clotting by direct
thrombin inhibition, enabling thrombocyte function
diagnostics in a native condition. The new S-Monovette®
Hirudin has been developed in cooperation with Dynabyte/Verum
