ABSTRACT:
A urine collection device is disclosed for use in metabolic studies in which an integrated specimen is desired. The collection device has a receptacle divided into bin sections. A removable manifold cover adapted to fit onto the receptable portion has openings which are arranged to be in registration with a separate one of the bin sections. Urine poured into the manifold will be metered through the openings into the bin sections, with a substantially equal amount entering each. Each bin contains a different chemical substance for preserving some characteristic of the urine. For example, in one bin the urine may be acidified by the substance; in another it may be alkalized; and in another it may have the pH stabilized. The device permits urine samples of a patient to be collected over a period of time, and away from a clinic or hospital without the urine characteristics to be tested changing.
