Abstract
A method for fractionated distribution of a blood sample, includes the steps of: PA1 a) drawing up a blood sample into a needle; PA1 b) distributing via the needle an aliquot corresponding to a specific fraction of the blood sample drawn up, into a flow of a reagent, to thereby produce a mixture of the aliquot and of the reagent; PA1 c) collecting the mixture in a mixing and/or measuring receptacle; and PA1 d) repeating steps b) and c) at least once to distribute a further aliquot corresponding to a further specific fraction of the blood sample, into a further flow of reagent.
