摘要:
A specimen transfer device (10) adapted to receive a blood sample is disclosed. The specimen transfer device includes a housing (14) and an actuation member (28). A deformable material (16) is disposed within the housing and is deformable from an initial position in which the material is adapted to hold the sample to a deformed position in which at least a portion of the sample is released from the material. A viscoelastic member (18) is disposed within the housing between the material and the housing and between the material and the actuation member. The viscoelastic member is engaged with the actuation member and the material such that movement of the actuation member from a first position to a second position deforms the material from the initial position to the deformed position.
