Support for conserving samples of biological material and method of production thereof

A production process for producing a support for conserving a sample of biological material, the process comprising:

• a step of making a first portion of absorbent matrix from a material comprising cellulose suitable and intended for the storage of a sample of biological material;
• a step of positioning the first portion of the absorbent matrix in a mould, and of retaining the first portion of the absorbent matrix in a predetermined position in the mould;
• and
• a step of moulding or co-moulding or overmoulding plastic material in empty spaces of the mould to form a body retaining the first portion of the absorbent matrix, wherein the body is provided with at least a first through opening and is fixed to the first portion of the absorbent matrix at least in a second lateral part of the first portion which is constrained to the body, inserted in the body, and surrounded and enclosed by the body, and wherein the first portion has a first part without support from the body and which is suspended inside the first through opening, the first part of the first portion of the absorbent matrix being directly accessible to contact, and the first portion of the absorbent matrix being maintained in a predetermined position within the first through opening at least by a fastening, contact and/or adhesion between the second lateral part of the first portion of the absorbent matrix and the body.
