Patent ID: 7833169

Claim:
A device for collecting a urine sample, comprising: an axially extending body having a channel defining a continuous flow path extending from a first end to a second end thereof and through which urine can flow; a generally radial opening in the axially extending body extending from a point in communication with the continuous flow path to a point externally of the axially extending body at a location intermediate the first and the second ends thereof; a collector associated with the generally radial opening externally of the axially extending body for receiving urine; and a member covering the generally radial opening in the axially extending body which permits urine to pass from the continuous flow path defined by the channel, through the generally radial opening in the axially extending body, and into the collector only after the member has been in contact with urine that has passed through the continuous flow path defined by the channel for a period of time; whereby, the collector is only able to receive a urine sample which is not from an initial flow of urine at a location externally of the axially extending body.
