Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne une paillette pour la conservation de petites quantités de substances, notamment des substances biologiques, en particulier des liquides biologiques.The present invention relates to a straw for the preservation of small amounts of substances, especially biological substances, in particular biological liquids.
Ce type de paillette, connue sous la dénomination de "paillette française", a été divulgué pour la première fois dans le brevet français N°
Les paillettes utilisées jusqu'à présent comprennent un bouchon tripartite constitué par deux tampons d'une substance fibreuse enserrant une poudre susceptible de se transformer au contact d'un liquide en une pâte ou gel imperméable adhérant à la paroi du tube en créant un bouchon étanche.The flakes used up to now comprise a tripartite stopper consisting of two buffers of a fibrous substance enclosing a powder capable of being transformed on contact with a liquid into an impermeable paste or gel adhering to the wall of the tube, creating a tight plug .
Les paillettes à bouchon tripartite mises au point et commercialisées par la Demanderesse donnent toute satisfaction. Néanmoins, une certaine absorption de liquide contenu dans la paillette a pu être constatée, quoique très faible.The sequins tripartite plug developed and marketed by the Applicant are very satisfactory. Nevertheless, some absorption of liquid contained in the straw has been observed, albeit very weak.
Il existe des paillettes de différents diamètres. Pour des paillettes de grand diamètre, par exemple, 3,7 mm, le bouchon tripartie aura une taille plus importante et l'absorption y sera d'autant plus conséquente.There are straws of different diameters. For flakes of large diameter, for example, 3.7 mm, the tripartite plug will have a larger size and absorption will be all the more consistent.
Le brevet français N°
Un objet de l'invention est de fournir une paillette comportant un indicateur de remplissage.An object of the invention is to provide a straw comprising a filling indicator.
D'autres objets et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description ci-après.Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the description below.
La présente invention répond à l'objet ci-dessus et fournit une paillette pour la conservation de petites quantités de substances, notamment de substances biologiques, se composant d'un segment de tube, dans laquelle ledit segment de tube est muni à l'intérieur de l'une de ses extrémités d'un insert percé d'un orifice sensiblement coaxial, caractérisée en ce que l'insert est un tube capillaire servant d'indicateur de remplissage.The present invention meets the above object and provides a straw for the preservation of small amounts of substances, especially biological substances, consisting of a tube segment, wherein said tube segment is provided inside. at one of its ends an insert pierced with a substantially coaxial orifice, characterized in that the insert is a capillary tube serving as a filling indicator.
Avec un tel insert capillaire, la paillette est utilisée sans bouchon. L'insert sert ainsi d'indicateur de remplissage.With such a capillary insert, the straw is used without a cap. The insert thus serves as a filling indicator.
L'insert est habituellement en un matériau choisi parmi les matériaux élastomères, les matériaux thermoplastiques et les matériaux élastomères thermoplastiques. Il peut également être en métal ou en tout autre matériau approprié.The insert is usually made of a material selected from elastomeric materials, thermoplastic materials and thermoplastic elastomeric materials. It can also be metal or any other suitable material.
L'extrémité de la paillette ne comportant par l'insert selon l'invention, demeure normalement ouverte pour l'introduction du produit à conserver, qui est généralement un liquide.The end of the straw comprising the insert according to the invention remains normally open for the introduction of the product to be preserved, which is usually a liquid.
Pour mettre le produit chargé à l'abri de toute contamination, l'extrémité ouverte est obturée, par exemple par soudage, notamment aux ultrasons ou thermique, ou toute autre technique appropriée connue de l'homme de l'art.To put the charged product away from contamination, the open end is closed, for example by welding, including ultrasound or heat, or any other suitable technique known to those skilled in the art.
Il est par ailleurs avantageux de pouvoir marquer les paillettes par "code couleur" sans avoir à recourir à des paillettes colorées. Ceci peut être effectué selon la présente invention en choisissant un insert en un matériau thermoplastique coloré ou en matériau élastomère thermoplastique coloré.It is also advantageous to be able to mark the flakes by "color code" without having to resort to colored flakes. This can be done according to the present invention by choosing an insert made of colored thermoplastic material or colored thermoplastic elastomer material.
Ici, où l'insert est un capillaire, le diamètre de l'orifice intérieur de l'insert a habituellement un diamètre compris entre environ 0,5 mm et 2 mm, mais pas exclusivement.Here, where the insert is a capillary, the diameter of the inner orifice of the insert usually has a diameter of between about 0.5 mm and 2 mm, but not exclusively.
L'invention sera à présent illustrée de façon non limitative en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel la
Dans la
L'homme de l'art comprendra que bien que l'invention ait été décrite et illustrée pour des modes de réalisation particuliers, de nombreuses variantes peuvent être envisagées tout en restant dans le cadre de l'invention tel que défini dans les revendications annexées.It will be understood by those skilled in the art that although the invention has been described and illustrated for particular embodiments, many alternatives may be contemplated while remaining within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
