More Information
Summary:A blood sample collection and/or storage device includes a medium, such as a membrane or microstructured environment for storing a body fluid sample such as a blood sample. The medium has hydrophobic patterns formed thereon or therein to define precisely dimensioned channels for fluid flow or fluid retention. Break lines in the medium defined predetermined areas (or volumes) of the medium. After sample collection, the medium may be broken apart along the break lines to obtain a precisely measured amount of the fluid sample.
