Description of the Related Art Conventionally, blood is collected and separated by first aspirating blood from the inside of a blood vessel with a syringe or the like, placing the blood in a dedicated test tube, and loading the test tube into a centrifuge. By driving a centrifugal separator, blood has been separated into a blood cell component and a plasma component using a specific gravity difference. However, the centrifugal separator is bulky and expensive, and requires a great deal of time and labor from the start of blood collection to the end of separation.

For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2526889 discloses that a partition wall is provided in a main body pipe, the inside of the pipe is divided into an upstream chamber and a downstream chamber, and both ends of a U-shaped porous hollow fiber membrane are fixed to the partition wall. In this case, both ends are opened to the upstream chamber side, and the inside of the main body tube is evacuated. When blood is introduced into the upstream chamber through the blood collection needle in this tube, the pressure in the upstream chamber increases by the amount of the blood introduced, and a pressure difference is generated between the upstream chamber and the downstream chamber. Due to this pressure difference, blood enters the hollow fiber membrane through the openings at both ends, but only plasma components in the blood can pass through the hollow fiber membrane. The blood cell component on the chamber side and the plasma component on the downstream chamber side are separated.

【発明が解決しようとする課題】前記採血管には、次の
ような解決すべき課題がある。The blood collection tube has the following problems to be solved.
【0005】1)この採血管を製造するには、多数本の

高は免れ得ない。1) In order to manufacture this blood collection tube, it is necessary to fix a large number of U-shaped hollow fiber membranes to a partition wall and to fix the partition wall at a predetermined position in the main body tube.
These operations require a great deal of trouble, and high costs cannot be avoided.
【0006】2)下流室に流入した血漿成分を検査する

ある。[0006] 2) In order to examine the plasma component flowing into the downstream chamber, it is necessary to first suck the plasma component from the downstream chamber with another device (eg, a syringe) and put it into another container (eg, a test tube). is there. Therefore, even if blood can be separated, there is an inconvenience that it takes a long time to collect plasma thereafter.

も、当該膜が糸状であるため、表面積は限られており、
その分、分離に時間がかかることになる。また、中空糸
内で目づまりを起こしやすい。[0007] 3) Although a large number of hollow fiber membranes are used, the surface area is limited because the membrane is in the form of a thread.
To that extent, the separation takes time. Also, clogging is likely to occur in the hollow fiber.
【0008】4)前記採血管では、上流室内へ血液が導

十分となるおそれがある。[0010] 4) In the blood collection tube, the blood pressure is caused by the introduction of blood into the upstream chamber, and the plasma component is transmitted through the hollow fiber membrane. A relatively large pressure difference is required to allow the components to permeate, and the pressure difference due to the blood introduction alone may not be sufficient.

下流管内空間に導入されるようにしたものである。According to the present invention, there is provided an upstream tube having a blood outlet, into which collected blood is introduced, and closing the blood outlet of the upstream tube. And a filter that separates flowing blood into a blood cell component and a plasma component, and a downstream tube that is opened at one end and a portion including the blood outlet of the upstream tube is inserted from the opening in the longitudinal direction of the tube. And a seal portion that slides on the inner surface of the downstream tube in the longitudinal direction of the tube while sealing the space inside the downstream tube by contacting the inner surface of the downstream tube at a portion upstream of the blood outlet of the upstream tube. The pressure of the space in the downstream pipe is reduced by relative movement of the two pipes in the direction in which the upstream pipe comes off from the downstream pipe, and the plasma component in the upstream pipe permeates the filter by the negative pressure and passes through the filter. Lead to downstream pipe space It is obtained as is.
【0011】この採血管によれば、例えば次の要領で血
液の採取及び分離を効率良く行うことができる。According to this blood collection tube, blood can be collected and separated efficiently, for example, in the following manner.

圧の必要はない。By plugging the blood inlet of the upstream tube, the inside of the upstream tube and the downstream tube are sealed, and the air in both tubes is sucked to reduce the pressure. This decompression may be performed at a stage before blood collection tube distribution. In other words, the blood collection tube may be provided after the manufacturer reduces the pressure in the tube. In addition, the work of collecting blood from the human body may be performed using another device such as a syringe, and the collected blood may be put into the upstream pipe. In this case, there is no particular need to reduce the pressure.

採血作業と同時に血液の分離が進行することになる。[0013] With blood in the upstream tube, the two tubes are relatively moved in the longitudinal direction in a direction to pull out the downstream tube from the upstream tube. This increases the volume of the downstream pipe space sealed by the upstream pipe side seal portion in the sealed state, so that the pressure in the downstream pipe space falls below the upstream pipe pressure, and this pressure difference causes the pressure in the upstream pipe to decrease. Blood attempts to flow into the downstream tube through the blood outlet. However, a filter is provided at the blood outlet, and since only the plasma component passes through the filter, the plasma component is separated from the blood cell component and flows into the downstream pipe. Therefore,
Separation of blood proceeds simultaneously with the blood collection operation.

る。In the present invention, it is not necessary to separate blood into blood cell components and plasma components very strictly, and only a small part of blood cell components (for example, platelets) passing through a filter is required. Those that are permitted shall be included.
【0015】 分離完了後、下流管から上流管を抜き

供することができる。After the separation is completed, the upstream pipe is withdrawn from the downstream pipe. At this time, since only the plasma component is collected in the downstream tube, this downstream tube can be used as it is as a test tube for inspection.

上流管とを一体にモールドすることも可能である。In this blood collection tube, a blood outlet is provided in the upstream tube,
Since the filter is arranged so as to close the filter, a large area for blood to flow through the filter can be secured by setting the shape of the blood outlet, and the time required for separation can be shortened accordingly. For example, if a blood outlet is provided at the end peripheral wall of the downstream pipe, or a blood outlet is provided at the end peripheral wall and the end wall,
A larger blood outlet area can be secured than when a filter is provided only on the tube end wall. Furthermore, a plurality of blood outlets are arranged side by side on the peripheral wall at the end of the upstream pipe, and if a filter is arranged in a cylindrical shape so as to close these blood outlets, the number of blood outlets can be increased to increase the area while increasing the number of blood outlets. The blood outlet can be efficiently closed by the cylindrical filter. Further, the filter and the upstream pipe can be integrally molded.

用者の負担を大幅に軽減することができる。When the downstream pipe is pulled out, the degree of pressure reduction in the downstream pipe increases as the stroke increases, so that the operation resistance gradually increases. Therefore, considerable force is required to hold the upstream tube in a position where the downstream tube space is depressurized for blood separation. Here, by providing a holding member for holding the upstream pipe at the position, the burden on the user can be significantly reduced.

位置に保持されることになる。More specifically, a projection is provided at an end of the upstream pipe opposite to the insertion end of the downstream pipe so as to protrude in a radial direction, and an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the downstream pipe in a natural state. And an expansion / contraction member capable of being elastically deformed in the diameter reduction direction is attached around the upstream pipe until the outer diameter becomes equal to or less than the inner diameter of the downstream pipe, and the expansion / contraction member is inserted into the downstream pipe together with the upstream pipe. By moving the upstream pipe in the withdrawal direction until the expanded / reduced diameter member escapes from the upstream pipe, the expanded / reduced diameter member is expanded and interposed between the protruding portion and the open end of the downstream pipe. It is preferable to use such a method. According to this configuration, before performing the operation of pulling out the upstream pipe, the enlarged / reduced diameter member (that is, the holding member) is housed in the downstream pipe together with the upstream pipe, so there is no risk of losing the enlarged / reduced diameter member. Further, when the pull-out operation is performed from this state to cause the enlarged / reduced diameter member to escape from the downstream pipe, the diameter of the enlarged / reduced diameter member is increased by its elastic return force and interposed between the projecting portion and the downstream pipe end. The tube will automatically be held in the position after the withdrawal operation.

A stopper 18 made of an elastic member such as rubber is attached to the upper end opening, and the upper end opening which is a blood inlet is closed by the stopper 18. Specifically, a peripheral groove 18a is formed on the lower surface of the plug 18, and the peripheral edge of the blood inlet (that is, the upper end of the upstream pipe 10) is press-fitted into the peripheral groove 18a, so that the plug 18 fits into the upstream pipe 10.

The lower part of 0 has a double structure having an outer wall 15 and an inner wall 16. The end (lower end) of the outer wall 15 is completely closed, and the peripheral wall has a lattice shape intersecting in the longitudinal direction of the tube and the peripheral direction. In other words, a plurality of blood outlets 14 are formed in the peripheral wall in the longitudinal and circumferential directions of the tube. The inner wall 16 extends only in the longitudinal direction of the tube and completely wraps with the longitudinal outer wall grid portion. The filter 20 is sandwiched between the outer wall 15 and the inner wall 16. The filter 20 is arranged in a tubular shape so as to close the whole blood outlet 14.

It may be. Further, even with ordinary filter paper having a large pore size, it is possible to capture blood cell components by incorporating an anti-blood cell antibody into the filter paper and utilizing specific binding between the antibody and blood cells. Further, if a cationic polymer is contained in the filter and blood cell components (especially red blood cells) whose surface is negatively charged are aggregated by an electrostatic force to make them giant, separation with higher efficiency can be achieved.

いる。When a plurality of types of porous bodies are laminated so that the pore diameter decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side (from the top to the bottom in the figure), clogging of blood cells can be reliably prevented. Highly efficient separation becomes possible. In the case of forming such a laminated structure, a plurality of porous layers having different pore diameters may be simply overlapped with each other, or may be previously laminated and integrated. Actually, when a three-layer porous membrane having an average pore size of 0.5 to 3.0 μm, 3.0 to 8.0 μm, and 8.0 to 30 μm was used, it was confirmed that good blood separation was possible without clogging.

The seal member 22 is made of a material having a high sealing property, such as rubber, and has an outer diameter slightly larger than the inner diameter of the downstream pipe 12. And, in the downstream pipe 12, the upstream pipe 10
With the blood outlet side end portion (lower end portion in the figure) of the seal member 22 inserted, the seal member 22 comes into sliding contact with the inner peripheral surface of the downstream pipe 12, whereby the downstream pipe inner space 13 below the seal member 22 is formed. It is designed to be sealed.

る。Further, the blood collection tube has an enlarged / reduced diameter member 24 attached around the upstream pipe 10. The expansion / contraction member 24 is formed of a thin metal plate or the like into a shape having a substantially C-shaped cross section, and has an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the downstream pipe 12 in a natural state where no external force is applied. Can be elastically deformed until it becomes smaller than the inner diameter of the downstream pipe 12. And, it is attached to the periphery of the upstream pipe 10 above the ring-shaped projection 11 formed at the middle position of the upstream pipe 10 (the position above the blood outlet 14).

い。First, while the expanding / reducing member 24 attached to the periphery of the upstream pipe 10 is elastically deformed in the reducing direction, the upstream pipe 10 and the expanding / reducing member 24 are placed in the downstream pipe 12 as shown in FIG.
Insert deeply into the position shown in FIG. 4A (that is, the position where the open end of the downstream pipe 12 and the upper end of the expanding / reducing member 24 are fitted into the peripheral groove 18b of the plug 18) (FIG. 4A). In this state, the suction tube is pierced into the stopper 18 to reach the inside of the upstream tube 10, and the air in the upstream tube 10 and the downstream tube 12 is sucked to reduce the pressure in both the tubes 10 and 12. The degree of vacuum may be appropriately set according to the specifications of the blood collection tube. Alternatively, the decompression may be performed by the manufacturer before distribution of the blood collection tube, and the supply may be performed after the decompression is completed.

力差が生じる。Next, one end (the upper end in the figure) of the blood collection needle N shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG.
The other end (the lower end in the figure) is pierced into the stopper 18 and the stopper 18 is penetrated. Thereby, the blood in the blood vessel automatically flows into the upstream pipe 10 by the action of the negative pressure in the upstream pipe 10, and the pressure in the upstream pipe 10 becomes higher than the pressure in the downstream pipe 12 by the amount of the blood introduced. Get higher. That is, a pressure difference occurs between the two tubes 10 and 12.

位置に自動的に保持される。Further, from this state, the stopper 18 and the downstream pipe 1
When the user grips 2 and operates in a direction in which the upstream pipe 10 is pulled out from the downstream pipe 12, the space inside the downstream pipe sealed by the seal member 22 (that is, the space below the seal member 22) 1
Since the volume of the tube 3 is increased in the closed state, the internal pressure of the downstream tube internal space 13 further decreases, and the pressure difference between the tubes 10 and 12 gradually increases. When the enlarged / reduced diameter member 24 pulled out of the downstream pipe 12 together with the upstream pipe 10 so as to be hooked on the protruding portion 11 completely escapes from the downstream pipe 12, the enlarged / reduced diameter member 24 is expanded by its elastic return force. As a result, the upstream pipe 10 is interposed between the open end (upper end) of the downstream pipe 12 and the plug 18 (see FIGS. 1B and 4B). Is automatically retained.

離ができる。At this time, due to the pressure difference between the pipes 10 and 12, the blood in the upstream pipe 10 tries to flow into the downstream pipe 12 through the blood outlet 18, and the blood outlet 18 is made to close the blood. Since the filter 20 is provided, the blood cell component in the blood is blocked from flowing, and only the plasma component flows through the filter 20 into the downstream pipe 12. Therefore,
After the blood is collected in the upstream pipe 10, the blood separation can be started immediately without changing the container. In addition, the area through which the blood passes through the filter 20 is larger than, for example, those using a conventional hollow fiber membrane, so that more rapid separation can be performed.

として検査に利用することができる。After the collection of the plasma components into the downstream pipe 12 is completed, it is only necessary to pull out the upstream pipe 10 from the downstream pipe 12. Since only the plasma component is collected in the downstream tube 12, the downstream tube 12 can be used as it is as a test tube for inspection.
