Abstract
A liquid suspension separator of simple, one-piece construction is provided for field tests such as bovine testing. The liquid suspension separator includes a housing having a separator chamber incorporating a filter body characterized by its ability to laterally filter the particulates of the suspension from the liquid component thereof. The housing incorporates eluant, liquid suspension and discharge ports and the liquid component of the suspension can be immediately collected to permit a test or tests to be run thereupon. One of the embodiments of the separator includes a test chamber which already incorporates a test specimen reactive to the liquid component of the suspension to permit an immediate test to be conducted in the field.
