<p>There is disclosed in one embodiment an apparatus for collecting biological fluids and holding samples taken from a biological fluid for qualitative and quantitative testing. The apparatus comprises a tubular container (22) open at both ends with a quantitative test storage unit (30) removably secured to one of said tubular container ends. The quantitative test storage unit (30) has an open end, a cytology membrane (40) mounted in the storage unit (30) and a retaining rib. A shuttle assembly (50) is slidably mounted in the tubular container comprising a cylindrical hollow piston defining a chamber (53), a thumb cover (54) covering one end of the piston and a fluid flow aperture (57) formed in the piston and a qualitative sample container assembly (70) removably secured to the piston. The qualitative sample container assembly comprises a clip-on membrane assembly including a membrane (92) containing immobilized antibodies and a filter housing (100) mounted to the clip on membrane assembly. the filter housing (100) is adapted to be seated n the quantitative test storage unit (30) after being slidably transported along the tubular container (22) by the piston. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
