forerun
This was my idea, too, that the "Vorlauf" is not a sample you take but is discarded, it is drawn before you start to take samples.
My laboratory dictionary calls this "forerun", and here is an example:
"Assemble an apparatus for fractional distillation,
using the vigreaux column and a small beaker as a receiver for the forerun."

Discussion
"Green needles are standard, and cannula samples are problematic (if essential use wide bore cannula and discard initial sample)."
http://pathology.bsuh.nhs.uk/Pathology/Default.aspx?tabid=59
"Traditionally, when drawing blood from arterial lines, the initial sample used to clear the line has been discarded (open method)."
