Container for the tissue with displacement of fluid to molecular diagnosis and histological

摘要

FLUID DISPLACEMENT TISSUE CONTAINER FOR MOLECULAR AND HISTOLOGY DIAGNOSTICS A container (10) for storing a biological sample for molecular diagnostic testing and/or histological testing is provided. The container (10) includes a first chamber (20) for receiving a sample holder (40) therein, a second chamber (26), and a closure (50) for enclosing the container (10). A transitional barrier (32), such as a valve, is in fluid communication between the two chambers. The transitional barrier (32) is transitional between a first position in which the first chamber is in fluid isolation from the second chamber, and a second position in which fluid can pass from at least one of the first and second chambers to the other of the first and second chambers.
