Abstract

The improvement of specimen quality for microbial analysis is addressed by the present invention which discloses a chemical composition for use in a method and apparatus for transporting a specimen suspected to contain microorganisms of interest to a laboratory for analysis and improved methods of analysis. A device and method for taking, storing, and preserving fluid samples is disclosed comprising a container and a composition designed to maintain the level of microorganisms present in a specimen during transportation of the specimen to a testing facility. The method and apparatus can be utilized on all types of aqueous specimens and specimens which may be extracted in aqueous solution for analysis of microorganisms therein.
