McKesson Sterile Specimen Container with Screw Cap - 4 oz, Graduated, Tamper-Evident Seal

Professional Sterile Specimen Collection Container for Clinical Diagnostics

The McKesson Sterile Specimen Container delivers reliable, contamination-free sample collection for urinalysis, drug screening, and diagnostic testing in clinical laboratories, physician offices, urgent care facilities, and hospital settings. Engineered with a leak-resistant screw cap and tamper-evident seal, this 4-ounce specimen cup ensures complete specimen integrity from collection through transport and analysis, enabling healthcare professionals to achieve accurate, dependable diagnostic results every time.

Advanced Design for Specimen Security and Accuracy

Each container features a precision-engineered screw-on lid with leak-resistant threading that creates a secure seal, preventing spills during handling and transport while maintaining specimen viability. The integrated tamper-evident seal provides immediate visual confirmation that the specimen has not been compromised or altered after collection—a critical feature for chain-of-custody requirements in drug testing, forensic applications, and regulated diagnostic procedures. This dual-layer security system protects both specimen integrity and testing accuracy while supporting compliance with laboratory quality standards.

Key Clinical Features:

• Sterile Inner Surface: Factory-sterilized interior eliminates contamination risk and ensures clean specimen collection without introducing external microorganisms that could compromise test results or lead to false positives
• Tamper-Evident Security Seal: Integrated seal provides immediate visual verification of specimen integrity, supporting chain-of-custody protocols for drug screening, forensic testing, and regulated diagnostic applications
• Leak-Resistant Screw Cap: Precision-threaded closure creates a secure, watertight seal that prevents spills and leakage during handling, transport, and centrifugation, protecting laboratory staff and maintaining specimen quality
• Translucent Container Design: Clear, see-through construction allows immediate visual assessment of specimen color, clarity, and volume without opening the container, facilitating preliminary observations and quality checks
• Graduated Volume Markings: Clearly imprinted measurement graduations in both ounces (½ to 4 oz at ½ oz increments) and milliliters (10 to 120 ml at 10 ml increments) enable precise volume documentation and ensure adequate sample quantity for testing
• Integrated Patient Label Area: Dedicated labeling surface allows quick, clear identification with patient name, date, time, and specimen type, reducing identification errors and supporting accurate patient-specimen matching
• 4-Ounce (120 ml) Capacity: Optimal size accommodates standard urine specimens and other liquid samples while remaining compact for efficient storage and handling in busy clinical environments
• Latex-Free Construction: Not made with natural rubber latex, ensuring safe use for patients and healthcare workers with latex sensitivities or allergies, eliminating cross-contamination concerns
• Single Patient Use Design: Intended for one-time use only, eliminating cross-contamination risks between patients and supporting infection control protocols in healthcare settings
• Plain (No Additive) Formulation: Contains no preservatives or chemical additives, making it suitable for a wide range of diagnostic tests including urinalysis, culture and sensitivity, pregnancy testing, and drug screening
