ABSTRACT:
A cap is provided for a blood microcollection container which cap incorporates a partially open tubular and tapered scoop arrangement for engaging a puncture wound, and rapidly receiving blood from the wound. The scoop arrangement is such that a substantial end surface is provided for engaging a puncture wound for receiving blood, and rapidly transferring it to the microcollection container where a further large abutting angular surface engages the surface of the microcollection container. A vent is incorporated into the cap for air displacement for enhancing the rapid transfer of blood and avoiding coagulation. With this invention, the time of transfer is reduced substantially because a less precise positioning is required of the scoop, and the need to initiate a capillary action is avoided.
