ABSTRACT:
A specimen cartridge for biological materials is formed from unbreakable materials, such as cardboard or synthetic polymers. The specimen cartridge includes a handle, a receptor attached to the handle, and an outer housing. The receptor and handle are slidable relative to the outer housing which may include a bar-coding label and a security tape. The outer housing and receptor fit snugly together to provide a liquid-tight, leak-proof seal to prevent the escape of any biological materials from the receptor. Thus, the specimen cartridge minimizes the risk of contamination caused by the storage and transport of potentially hazardous biological materials. Further, the outer housing and receptor are formed of shatter-proof materials, also to prevent contamination. A carrying case is adapted for safely and securely transporting and testing a plurality of specimen cartridges.
