Sputocol Sputum Collection System
Caplugs Evergreen Sputocol™ is a self-contained device for collecting, transporting and processing sputum and other potentially infectious specimens. The large funnel provides a convenient “target area”. Patients simply expectorate and reclose the funnel lid. Hospital/lab personnel can then prepare the specimen for transport without ever contacting a contaminated surface area.
- Includes:
- Funnel-stand-base housing with lid
- Freestanding or conical 50 ml centrifuge tube with screw cap
- Patient ID label
- Instructions for use
- The inside edge of the funnel brings the specimen directly into the centrifuge tube and prevents contact with the tube rim
- The funnel’s outside edge is extended to provide a safe area for handling and removing
- The bottom lid detaches and functions as a capping device, so that personnel may avoid touching the tube until sealed
- Extra-wide base prevents tipping and provides a sturdy, protective carrier for the tube during transit
- Tubes are made of ultra-clear polypropylene with easy-to-read & raised graduations markings
- Withstands 6000 RCF
