EasySampler® Stool Collection Kit
The EasySampler® Stool Collection Kit is a hygienic and user-friendly stool sample collection method.
Feces can uncover valuable information as to what is occurring in the gastrointestinal system. Unlike other laboratory tests, stool samples are commonly collected at home by the patient. But, patients find the collection of stool to be difficult, unpleasant and unhygienic to perform. Many patients take a sample directly from the toilet basin which is not only difficult but may cause potential measurement errors due to the loss of content from surrounding water or contamination with toilet sanitizers and additives.
The disposable EasySampler® Stool Collection Kit has been specifically designed for attachment to North American toilets and can be flushed after use. It also helps prevent contamination of the stool by water and dirt, decreasing the risk of test errors.
The EasySampler® Stool Collection Kit kit includes
- 1 EasySampler® collection hat (paper portion)
- 1 pair of disposable gloves
- 2 collection spoons
- 1 15mL leak-proof primary receptacle with screw cap
- 1 leak-proof secondary receptacle with absorbent material and screw cap
- 1 padded envelope marked for mailing biological material
For in vitro diagnostic use in the United States. For research use only in other territories.
