Abstract:
An apparatus that allows for separating and collecting a fraction of a sample. The apparatus, when used with a centrifuge, allows for the creation of at least three fractions in the apparatus. It also provides for a new method of extracting the buffy coat phase from a whole blood sample. A buoy system that may include a first buoy portion and a second buoy member operably interconnected may be used to form at least three fractions from a sample during a substantially single centrifugation process. Therefore, the separation of various fractions may be substantially quick and efficient.

Claim (Index 20):
The method of  claim 19 , wherein the separator comprises a buoy having a selected density, and the method further comprises centrifuging the mixture within the separator container so that the buoy physically separates the plurality of fractions based on the density of the fractions.
