The syringe has a vent that allows air to escape from the receptacle as blood flows therein. The vent can include a filter for use in preventing blood from exiting the interior receptacle.

A plurality of the plunger-less syringes can be packaged in a container, wherein the blood pathway of the syringes is sterilized and without having any exterior sterile packaging.
