ABSTRACT:
A blood collector, for a microcollection container having an open end, a closed end and a container side wall therebetween, includes a cap for engaging the open end of a container and an elongate body extending through the cap defining a longitudinal axis and having a blood flow passageway therethrough. The body includes a distal front end portion adapted to receive blood from a wound and a proximal rear end portion terminating in a proximal edge for carrying blood to an interior surface of the container side wall. A vent is provided in said cap for air displacement therethrough. The rear end portion includes a generally longitudinally extending discontinuity interrupting the proximal edge for up to substantially about 120.degree. along the periphery of the body in a portion of the rear end portion being substantially adjacent to an interior surface of the container side wall when the cap engages a container. The discontinuity includes side walls extending from the blood flow passageway through the body.
