Zusammenfassung:A blood sample collector can be used to collect a blood sample from a subject. The blood sample collector can be placed in a receptacle of a spectrometer to measure spectral data from the blood sample while the blood sample separates. The container may comprise a window to allow light such as infrared light to pass through the container, with the blood sample at least partially separating within the container between spectral measurements, which can provide improved accuracy of the measurements and additional information regarding the sample. Measurements of the level of a biomarker surrogate in a person's blood may be used to assist the person to make beneficial changes to their diet, exercise regimen, or other aspects of their lifestyle.
