Abstract
A hemolyzing tube (A) having its interior (10) evacuated and containing a standard amount of a blood dissolving liquid (3) has a tubular body (2) whose closed bottom faces a top mouth closed with a stopper (1) capable of being pierced. The tube is usable with a cylindrical casing (C) having a double-ended needle (8) and also with an evacuated blood collection tube (B) that is for temporary accommodation in the casing. In the method of preparing a hemolysis blood sample, a small amount of blood sucked through the needle will enter the collection tube (B), and a residual amount of blood remaining in the needle will then be drawn into the hemolyzing tube (A) to produce in it a test sample subject to clinical examination of the blood.
