We collect our bone marrows aspirates for FC into a syringe and then expel
the contents into an EDTA vacutainer tube.  This seems to work fine.

Years and years ago I came across a patient whose serum jellified at 35oC.
This patient had a myeloma protein (IgG).  I have never seen this phenomenon
since.
