The invention relates to a method of preparing an original sample (3) of biological origin with a view to detecting at least one component contained in it, whereby the original sample (3) is enclosed in a first container (1) and at least a part of this original sample (3) is transferred from the first container (1) into at least one reaction container, a reagent (9) or reagent mixture being placed beforehand in at least one of the reaction containers in order to prepare the original sample (3) and the component to be detected. In order to transfer at least a part of the original sample (3), two respective containers (1, 6) are connected to one another to form a closed, airtight system at least until at least the component(s) to be detected has (have) been rendered stable by reacting it (them) with the reagent (9) or reagent mixture at room temperature.
Method of preparing an original sample of biological origin with a view to detecting at least one of the components contained in it, whereby the original sample is enclosed in a first container and at least a part of this original sample is transferred from the first container into at least one reaction container via a piercing means, a reagent or reagent mixture being placed beforehand in at least one of the reaction containers in order to prepare the original sample and the component to be detected, wherein in order to transfer at least a part of the original sample, two respective containers are connected to one another in a closed, airtight system until the component(s) to be detected has (have) been rendered stable by reacting it (them) with a reagent or reagent mixture at room temperature and when the containers are subsequently separated, the piercing means remains on the first container.
