APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR QUANTIFICATION OF BIOLOGICAL MATERIAL IN A LIQUID SAMPLE

摘要

An article (A) adapted for holding a liquid sample for quantification of biological material in the liquid sample. The article includes a bag having an upper surface sheet (1) and a lower surface sheet (2) enclosing a volume therebetween. The bag has an upper opening through which the liquid sample can be poured into the volume in the bag. The bag also has a plurality of partitions (9) configured to separate one or more portions (3) of adequate sample in the bag. Also provided is a passage through which a liquid sample can be distributed throughout the volume in the bag. The bag is made of material which can be caused to form discrete non-permeable compartments for holding separate aliquots of the liquid sample.
