hiv blood with anticoagulant

I went to the hospital laboratory.There were some blood spill out from the test tube on the test-tube rack.There were anticoagulants in the blood.So the blood can not be solidified.
And I touched  the blood on the test-tube rack with my hand. there was an open wound on my hand.So my wound contacted the blood with anticoagulant,
If there were AIDS virus in the blood.Will I  be infected?WIll I get hiv?
I know AIDS virus will die as soon as it contact with air.But what about the blood with anticoagulant?If the blood cannot be solidified,it will provide the same liqiud environment that it provide in the body.Then will the AIDS virus exist for a long
time in the blood with anticoagulant?Can AIDS virus in the blood with anticoagulant die at once when it exposure to the air?Please tell me why.Thank you.
