Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When an evacuation tube contains a clot activator, it should be inverted a few times (usually 5 - 8 times) after drawing to ensure the clot activator is well - mixed with the blood sample. Centrifuging immediately is premature as the clotting process needs time to occur. Filling it only half - way is not related to the presence of a clot activator. Vigorous shaking can cause hemolysis.

Answer:

Invert the tube five time after drawing it
