ABSTRACT:
A collecting apparatus for the collection of pinworm eggs incorporates a shaft surrounded by an adhesive strip. A tab is disposed at the free end of the adhesive strip. The shaft is attached to a gripping member by a connecting member.
The gripping member is preferably a threaded screw cap suitable for use with a storage tube. The shaft and connecting member are placed within the tube and the tube is sealed with the gripping member for transportation and storage of collected eggs. Once a specimen is collected, the tab of the adhesive strip is used as an anchor. Using the gripping member as a tool in a rotating fashion, the entire adhesive strip is rolled onto a microscope slide without disturbing any specimens on the strip.
