Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a straw for the preservation of small quantities of substances, in particular biological substances, in particular of biological fluids.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a straw comprising a means shutter which, while being liquid tight and gas permeable, does not absorb no amount of liquid.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a glitter allowing absorption of liquid through the closure means in a reduced time.
  • the present invention meets these objects and provides a glitter for the storage of small quantities of substances, especially substances biological, consisting of a segment of tube fitted inside one of its ends of a sealing means, characterized in that said sealing means is a bipartite stopper consisting of a microporous and hydrophobic membrane and a insert pierced with a substantially coaxial orifice.
  • the insert is usually made of a material chosen from the materials elastomers, thermoplastic materials and elastomeric materials thermoplastics.
  • the insert has a shape substantially cylindrical exterior.
  • the insert is tubular, its orifice substantially coaxial which may for example be substantially cylindrical, conical or biconical.
  • the membrane surrounds the insert over part or all of its length.
  • the membrane is positioned substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the insert.
  • the insert is bipartite.
  • the insert can also be overmolded, glued or welded to the membrane.
  • the insert can be rounded at its ends.
  • the insert will advantageously include a sealing segment on its wall external.
  • the microporous membrane used in the present invention will have preferably a pore diameter of between approximately 0.001 and 10 ⁇ m, better still, the pore diameter of the membrane will be less than or equal to 0.2 ⁇ m.
  • the membrane is for example made of polymer material, for example, a material chosen from high density polyethylene (PE-HD), polyamides, nitrocellulose, polyesters, phenol-formaldehyde resins (PF resins), perfluoroalkoxy resins (PFA) and fluorocarbon resins.
  • PE-HD high density polyethylene
  • PF resins phenol-formaldehyde resins
  • PFA perfluoroalkoxy resins
  • fluorocarbon resins for example, a material chosen from high density polyethylene (PE-HD), polyamides, nitrocellulose, polyesters, phenol-formaldehyde resins (PF resins), perfluoroalkoxy resins (PFA) and fluorocarbon resins.
  • the polymeric material of the membrane will advantageously have a bubble point P greater than 6.10 5 Pa (6 bars) for 0.2 ⁇ m.
  • the plug of the straw of the present invention is non-absorbent vis-à-vis liquids. It allows only gases, especially air, to pass through and is liquids up to its intrusion pressure.
  • the other end of the glitter that is to say the one without the cap according to the invention, remains normally open for the introduction of the product to store, which is usually a liquid.
  • the open end is closed, for example by welding, in particular ultrasonic or thermal, or any other suitable technique known to those skilled in the art.
  • the cap of the invention has many advantages: it is non-toxic, sterilizable, it can be frozen or reheated without damage.
  • the cap of the invention is liquid tight. It neither absorbs the diluent nor sperm.
  • An advantage of the glitter cap according to the present invention is that it can quickly fill the straw.
  • the plug of the invention is also particularly advantageous because it allows only part of the liquid contained in the straw to be withdrawn while keeping the latter for later use. This was not possible with the tripartite plug of the prior art.
  • Another advantage of the invention is that this non-absorbent plug allows good adhesion to the parts of the glitter, thus preventing backwash well known when using the tripartite plug.
  • Another advantage of the invention is that the plug, by its porosity, ensures of course a filtration which makes it possible to work in a more or less sterile mode.
  • Another advantage of the invention is that it is also possible, with the same flake, reabsorb product.
  • Another advantage of the bipartite plug of the present invention is still ability to mark the glitter by coloring the insert. We thus obtain a "code color "without having to resort to colored glitter.
  • Figure 1 shows a straw 1 according to an embodiment of the invention fitted with the bipartite plug 2 consisting of the microporous and hydrophobic membrane 3 and an insert 4 pierced with a cylindrical orifice 5.
  • Figure 2 shows the glitter of Figure 1 in which the insert 4 has on its outer wall a sealing segment 6.
  • Figure 3 illustrates the embodiment of the invention according to which the orifice coaxial 5 is conical.
  • Figure 4 illustrates the embodiment of the invention according to which the orifice coaxial 5 is biconical.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates the embodiment of the invention according to which the insert 4 is bipartite.
  • Figure 6 illustrates the embodiment of the invention according to which the insert 4 is molded onto the membrane 3.
  • Figure 6bis illustrates the embodiment of the invention according to which the insert 4 is welded or glued to the membrane 3.
  • the membrane surrounds insert 4 over its entire length.
  • the membrane 3 surrounds the insert 4 over part of its length.
  • the membrane 3 is positioned substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the insert 4.
  • Figure 7 shows the straw 1 '"naked", the membrane 3 and the insert 4 according to the invention, separate.
  • Figure 8 shows the insert 4 on which the membrane 3 was threaded and the straw 1 ', before the introduction, in the direction of arrow F, of the insert 4 with the membrane 3 in the straw 1 '.
  • Figure 9 shows the straw 1 comprising the bipartite plug according to the present invention.
