METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PREPARING A SAMPLE OF BIOLOGICAL ORIGIN IN ORDER TO DETERMINE AT LEAST ONE CONSTITUENT CONTAINED THEREIN

摘要

The invention relates to a method of preparing an original sample (3) of biological origin with a view to detecting at least one component contained in it, whereby the original sample (3) is enclosed in a first container (1) and at least a part of this original sample (3) is transferred from the first container (1) into at least one reaction container, a reagent (9) or reagent mixture being placed beforehand in at least one of the reaction containers in order to prepare the original sample (3) and the component to be detected. In order to transfer at least a part of the original sample (3), two respective containers (1, 6) are connected to one another to form a closed, airtight system at least until at least the component(s) to be detected has (have) been rendered stable by reacting it (them) with the reagent (9) or reagent mixture at room temperature.
