Abstract

The device comprises a conveyor (6) for conveying sample containers (14), a unit (8) for opening and closing the containers, and a unit (9) for collecting samples and conveying them to culture dishes (15), the containers (14) are conveyed by the conveyor (6) in two opposite directions, from a container opening and closing position (P1) to a sample collecting position (P2), and back to the container opening and closing position (P1). The method comprises conveying a container (14) to an opening and closing position (P1), opening it, conveying it to a sample collecting position (P2), collecting the sample and depositing it on a culture dish (15); conveying the container (14) back to the container opening and closing position (P1), and closing again the container (14).
