ABSTRACT:
A culture cup for sampling and microbial-count determination, comprising a body and a tightly closing removable lid, the bottom of the body being provided with depressions for accomodation of at least one culture medium. The lid on its underside may be provided with a recess for accommodation of a condensate absorbent, and the body of the cup with a shoulder to serve as a seat for the bottom of the lid. The lid and body are threaded for engagement. By placing a culture medium in the depression, a biological specimen such as urine or blood can be added in just sufficient quantity to wet the culture so pouring and handling are reduced. Culture and analysis can then be undertaken in the usual manner using the cup body as the carrier of the culture medium.
