Sample receiving element for a laboratory device

A method for manufacturing a sample receiving element for a laboratory device, the sample receiving element being configured to receive a sample to be treated by the laboratory device and being penetrated by a magnetic field during operation of the laboratory device, and

• wherein the sample receiving element is configured to effect, at least in sections, an interruption of an electric current induced by changes in the magnetic field that penetrates the sample receiving element,
• preferably wherein the sample receiving element has a first side facing the sample and a second side facing away from the sample, in particular opposite to the first side, and the method comprises the following steps:
• providing a base layer of the sample receiving element and forming a separation layer in a region of the sample receiving element such that the separation layer extends from the first side to the second side of the sample receiving element and forms a zoning of the base layer,
• wherein the separation layer is formed of a separation layer material having a greater specific electrical resistance than a base material of the base layer,
• wherein the step of forming a separation layer preferably comprises a step of forming a recess, the recess being provided in a region of the sample receiving element and extending from the first side to the second side,
• further preferably wherein a suitable insert is inserted into the recess, which insert is manufactured separately, in particular wherein the insert forms the first zone of the base layer,
• or further preferably wherein in forming a recess, at least a first zone of the base layer is removed such that the first zone and a second zone of the base layer formed by removing the first zone are present.
