Abstract
A diagnostic testing kit for collection of fluid samples comprising a reservoir cup insertable into a container vessel. Fluid placed in the cup is communicated to reactive test strips located in a separation cavity between the cup and the container vessel when assembled. The test strips have a reactive agent impregnated in them that reacts to specific substances in the fluid and provide a visual result through the sidewall of the container vessel to the user. An optional alarm is provided to show minimum and maximum test times.
