An apparatus for storing blood plasma separated after fractionation from whole blood within a wrapped hematocrit (capillary) tube. The apparatus is large enough to receive and display a standard laboratory identification label. The apparatus stores plasma from a hematocrit tube that does not include thixotropic gel. The apparatus housing has an intended upright orientation, a central axis, a top end, a bottom end, and side walls defining an internal cavity. A wall with an upper surface and a lower surface divides the internal cavity into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. A reservoir is formed in the upper cavity. A removable cap seals the reservoir. The cap is movable between open and closed positions. A channel within the lower cavity extends axially from the bottom of the housing to the wall. The channel receives and supports the wrapped hematocrit tube while plasma is expelled therefrom and into the reservoir.
