Excerpt from The Essentials of Hematology: A Practical Guide to the Clinical Examination of the Blood for Diagnostic Purposes
The capillary tube is cleaned and dried and both compartments of the cylindrical chamber three-fourths filled with distilled water. The puncture having been made as described and a small drop of blood having appeared, one end of the capillary tube is applied to the apex of the drop (not immersed in it), whereupon the tube, if in proper condition, will instantly fill with blood.
