AI Technical Summary
During the separation process, existing immune cell separation tubes are prone to mixing blood layer with the separation fluid, which affects the separation effect, and the separated cells are easily thrown out of the separation tube.
A separation tube including a fixing mechanism and a limiting mechanism is designed. The fixing mechanism is closely attached to the top of the separation tube through a cover plate and a circular rubber block. The limiting mechanism slides through a slider in the T-trough to limit the movement of the nest, ensuring that the blood does not throw out during the separation process.
It effectively prevents the blood from throwing out of the separation tube during the separation process, improves the separation efficiency and cell purity, and simplifies the operation process.
