Abstract:
1. A device for separation of particulates from a fluid sample by centrifugation, the device comprising: a first chamber, the first chamber having an upper inlet for receiving the fluid sample to be processed by the device and a lower outlet for discharging material; a second chamber, the second chamber having an upper inlet for receiving a sample material from a first collection reservoir in a first valve, and a lower outlet for discharging material; a first channel connecting the lower outlet of the first chamber to the upper inlet of the second chamber; the first valve disposed along the first channel, wherein the first valve forms a seal preventing material in the first chamber from flowing in to the second chamber and wherein the first valve comprises the first collection reservoir for collecting particulates from the first chamber, a third chamber, the third chamber having an upper inlet for receiving a sample material from a second collection reservoir in a second valve; a second channel connecting the lower outlet of the second chamber to the upper inlet of the third chamber; and the second valve disposed along the second channel wherein the second valve forms a seal preventing material in the second chamber from flowing into the third chamber and wherein the second valve comprises the second collection reservoir for collecting particulates from the second chamber.
