The invention provides exemplary devices, systems and methods for mixing
of fluids, such as biological fluids. One exemplary device comprises is
particularly adapted for holding at least one cartridge having a chamber
containing a biological fluid, with the chamber having a generally planar
face. The device comprises a rotatable body having a rotational axis. The
rotatable body includes at least one mounting element which is adapted to
mount the rotatable body such that the face of the chamber is generally
perpendicular to the rotational axis.
