Abstract
A device for preparing biological samples including a fixed support of which the base extends in a first plane, a filtration block that can be removable, the filtration block including a collecting tank that itself includes a filtering device extending in a second plane and dividing the collecting tank into a collection area and a suction area, the suction area being designed to be connected to a suction device, the second plane of the filtering device being inclined relative to the plane of the base of the fixed support.
Claims17
A device for preparing a biological sample, comprising:
- a fixed support comprising a base that extends in a first plane, and an upper surface opposed to and inclined relative to the first plane of the base,
- a filtration block on the upper surface and configured to be removable from the fixed support,
- the filtration block comprising a collecting tank, the collecting tank comprising a wall and a filtering device, the filtering device extending in a second plane and dividing the collecting tank into a collection area that retains the biological sample before passing through the filtering device, and a suction area, the suction area being configured to be connected to a suction device,
- wherein the second plane of the filtering device is inclined relative to the first plane of the base of the fixed support, and
- the fixed support is fixed relative to the incline of the second plane.
A device for preparing a biological sample, comprising:
- a fixed support comprising a base that extends in a first plane, and an upper surface,
- a filtration block on the upper surface of the fixed support and configured to be removable from the fixed support,
- the filtration block comprising a collecting tank, the collecting tank comprising a wall extending perpendicularly relatively to the upper surface, and a filtering device, the filtering device extending in a second plane and dividing the collecting tank into a collection area that retains the biological sample before passing through the filtering device, and a suction area, the suction area being configured to be connected to a suction device,
- wherein the filtering device is inclined relative to the upper surface and inclined relative to the wall of the collecting tank at an angle, and
- the angle at which the filtering device is inclined relative to the upper surface and inclined relative to the wall of the collecting tank is fixed.
