The present invention relates to a cell collection device for collecting target cells by separation from fluid samples such as blood, physiological fluids, etc. The present invention comprises a first filter and a second filter. The first filter is formed with a plurality of first holes which have a size that allows passage of target cells included in a fluid sample. The second filter is located below the first filter so as to filter the target cells, and is formed with a plurality of second holes which have a size that allows passage of target cells. According to the present invention, target cells can be easily and efficiently collected after separation from large amounts of fluid samples such as blood, physiological fluids, etc. L'invention concerne un dispositif de collecte de cellules servant à collecter des cellules cibles par séparation d'échantillons de fluide, notamment de fluides sanguins, physiologiques etc. L'invention comprend un premier filtre et un second filtre. Le premier filtre est formé de plusieurs premiers orifices présentant une dimension qui permet le passage de cellules cibles contenues dans un échantillon fluidique. Le second filtre est situé au-dessous du premier filtre de manière à filtrer les cellules cibles, et est constitué de plusieurs seconds orifices présentant une dimension qui permet le passage de cellules cibles. Selon l'invention, les cellules cibles peuvent être facilement et efficacement collectées après séparation de grandes quantités d'échantillons de fluides, notamment de fluides sanguins, physiologiques, etc.
