Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) tubes have several advantages over glass tubes: they are unbreakable, lighter and more easily disposed of. Despite a steady increase in their use and an expansion of the range of available tubes, few studies validating their use have been published in the literature. This paper describes the various studies that have been performed to compare VENOJECT glass, VENOSAFE PET and VENOSAFE PET/heparin tubes for the assay of a panel of analytes in routine clinical chemistry, immunochemistry, hormone and tumor marker analysis and trace metal determination. These studies demonstrate that VENOSAFE PET tubes are a suitable alternative to glass tubes.
聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯（PET）管相较于玻璃管有几个优点：它们不易破碎、更轻且更容易处理。尽管其使用量稳步增加且可用管的种类有所扩展，但文献中发表的验证其用途的研究却很少。本文描述了为比较VENOJECT玻璃管、VENOSAFE PET管和VENOSAFE PET/肝素管在常规临床化学、免疫化学、激素和肿瘤标志物分析以及痕量金属测定中一组分析物的检测性能而进行的各项研究。这些研究表明，VENOSAFE PET管是玻璃管的合适替代品。
