Embodiment Construction

[0120] Reference will now be made to various components and variations of such components that may be used for the purpose of collecting and storing biological samples, such as tissue from animals. Reference will be made first to the collection and storage components, and then to the sampler device and associated components that can be used to collect samples using the collection and storage components.

[0121] Biological samples may be obtained by the sample collectors described herein from organisms such as plants or animals including, inter alia, pigs, goats, cattle, sheep, poultry, and fish. In a preferred form, the sample is a tissue sample taken from the animal's ear.

[0122] refer to Figures 1 to 33 , shows sample collector 601 and storage container 602 . The collector can be actuated by a tool such as that shown in the figures to engage (and preferably secure) the container, which is also held in a predetermined position by the tool to align the two together.

Abstract

The invention relates to, as an assembled elongate string, a sample collector and sample collector driver to drive at least the sample collector through an item to be sampled. The sample collector comprises a punch having a bore aligned to the elongate direction. One end of the punch and bore presents a cutter to cut and hold a sample from the item at the bore as the punch passes through the sample. The sample collector further comprises a plunger slideably supported to said punch to be able to move in said bore between a retracted position and an advanced position relative said punch. The movement of the plunger from the retracted position to the advanced position causes, in use, the cutter held sample to be displaced from the cutter. The sample collector driver comprises a body interfaced with said sample collector in a telescopic manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to improvements in or relating to biological sample collection. Background technique [0002] The collection of biological samples, such as animal tissue, usually collected from an animal's ear needs to be done efficiently and without the risk of contamination of the collected sample by previous samples that have been collected. For example, a large number of cows may need to be sampled at a given time from time to time. This process can become time consuming if the sampler tools and sample collectors are to be handled individually for each cow. There is also the risk that cross-contamination of samples may occur. In addition, to ensure that samples taken from animals are not tampered with, it is important to have sufficient deterrents to prevent sample tampering, while also ensuring that other animal information can be matched and / or traced. sample. [0003] As used in this specification, a tissue refers to any part o...
