Test tube
A test tube for containing a liquid and electrically connected to a blockchain network is provided. The test tube includes a tube body, a cover, at least one overlay unit, a chipset and a detection module. The tube body contains the liquid. The cover is disposed at the top of the tube body and including at least one drip tube. The overlay unit covers the drip tube. The chipset is disposed on the tube body and includes a blockchain tracer. The blockchain tracer records the source of the liquid and a transportation history of the test tube in the blockchain network for tracing. The detection module is disposed on the tube body and electrically connected to the chipset, for measuring a liquid property of the liquid.
