Device for Collecting Blood and Separating Blood Constituents, Method for Separating Blood Constituents and Use of Said Device

摘要

The invention relates to a device and a method for collecting blood and separating blood plasma as a liquid sample, by means of a canal that absorbs the liquid sample by capillary forces. The aim of the invention is to obtain a uniform filling of the canal with the liquid sample and an effective separation. To achieve this, deaeration takes place in a transverse direction to the main filling direction or to the longitudinal direction of the canal, immediately downstream of a separation device in an inlet region of the canal.
