Abstract
Abstract The disclosure is of a method of maintaining the blood clot-activating properties of a siliceous surface in a blood collecting assembly. The method comprises coating the siliceous surface with a water soluble, inert, film forming barrier material. The advantage of the method of the invention is a retention of speedy clotting time. The disclosure is also of improved blood collecting assemblies wherein the clot-activating components are coated with a film barrier of a water soluble, inert, polymeric material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
75 words
A method of manufacturing a storage stable blood collection assembly including a siliceous surface component for blood clot activation and a silicone based gel with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating blood clot activation, which comprises; providing the siliceous surface component; coating the siliceous surface with a water soluble, inert, film forming barrier material; and disposing said silicone based gel within the assembly whereby it may come into contact with the coated surface.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
75 words
A method of manufacturing a storage stable blood collection assembly including a siliceous surface component for blood clot activation and a silicone based gel with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating blood clot activation, which comprises; providing the siliceous surface component; coating the siliceous surface with a water soluble, inert, film forming barrier material; and disposing said silicone based gel within the assembly whereby it may come into contact with the coated surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
11 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said siliceous surface is silica.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said siliceous surface is the glass blood collecting container.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said film forming barrier material is a solution of poly(ethylene oxide).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 which further comprises forming a film of said barrier material on the siliceous surface.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
49 words
A method of maintaining the blood clot activating property of a siliceous surface in a blood collecting assembly which includes a substance with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating said property, which comprises; coating the siliceous surface with a water soluble, inert, film forming solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
49 words
A method of maintaining the blood clot activating property of a siliceous surface in a blood collecting assembly which includes a substance with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating said property, which comprises; coating the siliceous surface with a water soluble, inert, film forming solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone.
Claim 9
Independent Claim
87 words
A method of maintaining the blood clot activating property of a siliceous surface in a blood collecting assembly which includes a substance with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating said property, wherein said siliceous surface comprises particles selected from the class consisting of glass, kaolin, bentonite, siliceous aluminum hydrate, diatomaceous earth and kieselguhr, which comprises; suspending said particles in a water soluble, inert, film forming barrier material; and disposing the suspension in the blood collection assembly wherein it will come into contact with collected blood.
Claim 10
Independent Claim
87 words
A method of maintaining the blood clot activating property of a siliceous surface in a blood collecting assembly which includes a substance with a potential of contacting the surface and deactivating said property, wherein said siliceous surface comprises particles selected from the class consisting of glass, kaolin, bentonite, siliceous aluminum hydrate, diatomaceous earth and kieselguhr, which comprises; suspending said particles in a water soluble, inert, film forming barrier material; and disposing the suspension in the blood collection assembly wherein it will come into contact with collected blood.
