Abstract
A device for analyzing a liquid sample such as blood includes a cartridge portion and a casing portion. The cartridge includes an inlet for directly receiving a sample. The cartridge is then irreversibly clipped to the casing so that an inlet of the casing is in communication with an outlet of the cartridge. The sample is then mixed in the casing with a diluent and/or reagent by using a centrifuge, and measurements are taken. The device allows a sample to be taken directly into the cartridge, and restricts employment of the device to a single use.
