Summary: Abstract: Starch is a polysaccharide produced by most green plants as an energy source. It is the most common carbohydrate in the human diets. Dissolving starch in warm water gives a wheat paste, which can be used as a thickening, stiffening or gluing agents. Considering indigenous uses of starch, present study deals with the potential of Potato (Solanum tuberosum) as an alternative to the artificially manufactured polymers as constituents for the commercial serum separator tubes and then testing the serum collected if the starch gel had an effect on some clinical chemistry tests such as fasting blood glucose determination, total protein determination, lipid profile determination, phosphorus determination and potassium determination and this study have identified the ability of potato starch as a gel separator to different routine chemistry tests.
