Abstract
A specimen extraction kit includes a flexible tubular container configured to contain an extraction liquid, two holding portions opposed to each other and arranged at opposite sides of the tubular container, a coupling portion that couples the opposing holding portions, and a bending rib arranged on each of the opposing holding portions and configured to bend the tubular container and an extraction subject.
Claims15
A specimen extraction kit comprising:
- a flexible tubular container configured to contain an extraction liquid;
- an extraction subject accommodated in the tubular container;
- holding portions opposed to each other and arranged at opposite sides of a circumferential wall of the tubular container;
- an elastically deformable coupling portion that couples the holding portions;
- and
- a bending portion arranged on each of the holding portions, wherein the bending portion is configured to bend the tubular container and the extraction subject.
A specimen extraction kit comprising:
- a flexible tubular container configured to contain an extraction subject and an extraction liquid;
- and
- an elastically deformable holding member configured to receive the tubular container in a manner allowing for removal of the tubular container, wherein
- the holding member includes at least two projections that deform the tubular container, and the at least two projections are configured to press the tubular container and deform the tubular container in a zigzag manner when the holding member is elastically deformed.
A method for extracting a specimen, the method comprising holding a flexible tubular container, which is configured to contain an extraction liquid, and an extraction subject, which is accommodated in the tubular container, with opposing holding portions to bend the tubular container and the extraction subject and extract a specimen from the extraction subject.
