Description

  The present invention relates to a label, a label affixed with the label, and a sample container with a label for storing a sample container for temporarily storing a sample in a biochemical test or microbiological test such as a stool. The present invention relates to a case and a sample collection kit including the sample container storage case.

Conventionally, biochemical tests such as stool tests or microbiological tests are performed as follows, for example.
First, a sample collection kit comprising a sealable sample container having a liquid or gel-like preservative inside and a storage bag for storing the sample container is delivered from the testing institution to the subject. Next, after the specimen is collected by the subject, the specimen is temporarily stored in a state of being immersed or buried in a preservative in the specimen container. The specimen container in which the specimen is stored is stored in a storage bag in a sealed state, and then delivered to a laboratory. Then, in the inspection organization, the sample container containing the sample is opened, and a predetermined test is performed on the sample in the sample container.

For example, a label displaying sample management information such as the name and sex of the subject is attached to the surface of the sample container for temporarily storing such a sample in order to identify the sample. A label displaying sample management information is also attached to the surface of the storage bag for storing the sample container in order to identify the sample.
However, in the laboratory, before delivering the sample container to the subject, the label must be affixed manually while confirming the label to be affixed to both the sample container and the storage bag. Such label affixing work is extremely complicated, and there is a problem that inspection costs increase.

In order to solve such a problem, a sample including a main display portion attached to the storage bag and a sub-display portion attached to the sample container, which is surrounded by a cut and is separable from the main display portion. A container storage bag label has been proposed (see Patent Document 1).
According to such a label, the subject can peel off the auxiliary display portion from the label attached to the storage bag and attach it to the sample container. Therefore, in the inspection organization, it is only necessary to attach a label only to the storage bag, and the inspection cost can be reduced.

Thus, in the storage bag to which the above-mentioned label is attached, for example, a portion other than the part to which the label is attached in the storage bag so that the subject can appropriately attach the sub-display portion in the label to the sample container. A guide for pasting the sub display portion is displayed at the location.
However, if the subject overlooks the guidance displayed on the container, the sub-display portion may not be properly attached to the sample container.
In addition, when a small storage case is used instead of the storage bag for storing the sample container, for example, it is difficult to secure an area for displaying a guide for attaching the sub display portion on the surface of the storage case. In this case, it is necessary to prepare a piece of paper on which guidance is displayed separately from the storage case.
