    摘要: The device for blood sample preparation for determining the concentration of glucose in the blood plasma relates to medicine, more specifically to clinical laboratory diagnostics and endocrinology, and can be used for the diagnosing of diabetes mellitus.
    The device is a vacuum vial with a bar code and a protective cover of grey colour assembled with a rubber stopper comprising an inert separation gel in an amount of 0.6-1.2 g at the bottom and a mixture of potassium oxalate with sodium fluoride on the walls of the vial.
    The device provides increased accuracy of determining the glucose concentration in blood plasma, reduces the time of sample preparation, reduces the risk of haemolysis during transportation and storage of blood, and reduces the risk of infection of laboratory personnel with blood-borne infections.
