A single-use, biodegradable, paper urine collector and method of using same, the urine collector including a funnel body having a sloped continuous sidewall, a sloped base, a top opening, a funnel hole located at the lowest region of the sloped base and, optionally, a urine sample container operatively coupled to the sloped base. To convey funneled urine into the container, a top edge of the container is positioned within the funnel hole and the base of the container is positioned outside the funnel body. The funnel body is configured to funnel a stream of urine through the top opening and along an interior surface of the funnel body toward and through the funnel hole.

A cap assembly including a self-sealing membrane that overlaps an opening to an interior of a container. The cap assembly further includes a cap having a cover portion that includes an annular wall that defines a central opening, and at least one evacuating opening located radially outward of the central opening. The cover portion defines a gap above the self-sealing membrane. The gap is configured to allow the self-sealing membrane to be at least partially displaced from the opening to allow fluid communication between the interior of the container and an outside atmosphere when a suction is applied to the cap.
