Risk of infection, please wear suitable gloves!
1. Take out the sample tube from the fridge and allow it to warm up
to room temperature. Mix the sample carefully by repeated
rotating and rolling.
2. Take out a microcuvette from the supply box and close it again
tightly.
3. Pipette a sufficiently large drop of blood (about 15 µL) on a
clean, non-absorbent material (e.g. PE film).
4. Hold the tip of the
microcuvette in the middle of
the drop of blood and let the
cavity fill completely in one
step. The microcuvette must
be filled bubble free.

5. Remove any excessive blood
from the outside of the
microcuvette.
Be careful to prevent sucking
out and emptying of the
microcuvette cavity.
