C200G – SputEm™ - Sputum collection system

Made of polypropylene

The ideal way to collect, carry and process biological samples. The unit features a base that already incorporates a removable sterile 50 ml graduated polypropylene conical tube that can withstand centrifugation up to 5000 RPM or 3000g.

Available in a light green color, three narrow vertical windows allow the contents of the tube to be discreetly seen. A broad base ensures excellent stability and prevents the tipping of the unit. The extensive collection funnel is made so specimens fall directly into the graduated centrifuge tube and do not contaminate the outside threads. The centrifuge tube screw cap is always kept sterile under the snap cap on the funnel.

A patient label is already affixed on top of the unit and can easily be transferred to the tube before leaving for the laboratory. The base can be used as a support during transit. Each unit is sterile and individually wrapped.
