Frequently Asked Questions

Why is this container amber instead of clear?

Amber HDPE blocks light to protect photosensitive analytes like porphyrins, 5-HIAA, and catecholamines during a full 24-hour collection, reducing degradation before analysis.

Does the cap stay attached to the container?

Yes. The affixed screwcap is tethered to the bottle, which keeps the closure with the specimen during collection, transport, and handling, and helps prevent lost caps.

Are these containers sterile?

No. They are supplied non-sterile, which is standard for routine 24-hour urine collection and quantitative urinalysis workflows.

Can common urine preservatives be added to this container?

Yes. The HDPE wall offers good resistance to dilute acid preservatives such as hydrochloric acid; confirm the specific preservative and concentration against your laboratory protocol.
