Abstract:
Bodily fluid sample collection systems, devices, and method are provided. The device may comprise a first portion comprising at least a sample collection channel configured to draw the fluid sample into the sample collection channel via a first type of motive force. The sample collection device may include a second portion comprising a sample vessel for receiving the bodily fluid sample collected in the sample collection channel, the sample vessel operably engagable to be in fluid communication with the collection channel, whereupon when fluid communication is established, the vessel and/or another source provides a second motive force different from the first motive force to move a majority of the bodily fluid sample from the channel into the vessel.
Abstract:
Devices and methods are provided for use with one or more sample containers. This non-limiting example of the device comprises a first portion shaped to contain at least a portion of the sample container; a second portion configured for user handling and force application; and a guide portion sized and shaped to be received in a channel of a bulk sample container; wherein the first portion and second portion are sized to minimize thermal transfer between a user and the sample container.
