ABSTRACT:
This invention is a container holder that eliminates the potential of hand-restricting apparatus to cause cross contamination of urine specimens collected with the apparatus. The holder has a dismountable element (7) to directly support a specimen container (3). It has a fixed element (8) to temporarily position the dismountable one. The fixed element is a permanent part of the apparatus but safely distant from, and out of the direction of, possible soiling by voided urine. The dismountable element is discarded after a single use, unlike the previously taught apparatus, in which the entire holder is a fixed unit of the apparatus, continually reused, and a potential source of contamination.
