ABSTRACT:
An assembly for inhibiting microbial growth in collected body fluid includes a reservoir for collecting the fluid, and a tablet in the reservoir, which tablet dissolves in the collected fluid to produce hydrogen peroxide in an amount sufficient to inhibit microbial growth in the collected fluid. The tablet is partially coated with an insoluble coating which leaves a portion of the tablet uncoated to provide a constant surface area exposed to the collected body fluid, which surface area is of a size to provide sufficient hydrogen peroxide for inhibition of microbial growth.
