Apparatus for collecting a mid-stream urine sample

摘要

An apparatus for collecting a mid-stream urine sample includes a funnel having a wide end and a narrow end. The funnel is supported over a specimen container with the narrow end of the funnel at a mouth of the specimen container. A tubular receptacle depends from and is in fluid communication with the narrow end of the funnel. The tubular receptacle has at least one radial overflow passage adjacent the narrow end of the funnel. Once the tubular receptacle is filled with urine, any further urine entering the tubular receptacle overflows through the radial overflow passage.
