Zusammenfassung:A collector includes a collecting element that receives a sample of bodily fluid. The collecting element may be an absorbent pad that has been treated with a surfactant to optimize recovery of analytes from the sample and/or their absorbance onto the absorbent material. An extractor is operably connected to a container and receives the collector to provide fluid communication between the collector and the container. The collector, when received by the extractor, is operable to release a volume of the sample into the container.
