ABSTRACT:
A multiple-chamber container for sampling, storing and preserving for later testing a sample. A swab having a foam tip is used to collect a sample (the sample must have some liquid component, e.g., saliva, urine, blood, etc.). After the foam tip is used to collect a specimen, the swab is inserted into the container where the foam tip is compressed and a portion of the specimen that was sampled is diverted into each chamber. The swab is locked into the container thereby sealing the specimen inside. At least one test strip is positioned inside one of the chambers to test the sample. The sample in the other chamber(s) are separated and can be stored for a period of time. A preservative may be used to help keep the specimen during storage.
