Disclosed is cuvette for body fluid analysis. The cuvette comprising a sampling cavity comprising a fluid inlet, a sample analysis cavity, and a venting cavity being in fluid connection with the sampling cavity and the sample analysis cavity. The venting cavity has an outlet to the exterior of the cuvette. The cuvette is configured to transfer, when a centrifugal force is applied to the cuvette, a body fluid from the sampling cavity to the sample analysis cavity via the venting cavity. The sample analysis cavity is configured to provide a first capillary force, wherein the first capillary force is higher than a capillary force in the venting cavity. The sample analysis cavity is configured for separating and analyzing the body fluid sample.
A cuvette for body fluid analysis, the cuvette comprising:
A method of manufacturing a cuvette for taking up a body fluid sample and for analyzing the body fluid sample, said method comprising:
A shaping tool for forming a cuvette, said shaping tool being configured for insertion into a cuvette base material for forming cavities in the cuvette base material and being further configured to be withdrawn from the cuvette base material when the cavities have been formed, said shaping tool comprising:
