A saliva collection apparatus including a funnel-shaped saliva collection unit having an upwardly extended substantially trapezoidal lip. A cane-shaped earpiece has a hooked upper portion, a linear middle portion continuously attached to the hooked upper portion, and an L-shaped bottom portion having an upper end and a lower end rotatably and removably attached to an exterior surface of the saliva collection unit. A flexible tube has a top end attached within a funnel opening of the saliva collection unit and a bottom end. A disposable flexible collection bag is removably attached to the bottom end of the tube.

Sample collection apparatus and methods of sample collection are provided, for example saliva collection apparatus and methods of saliva collection. Said apparatus conveniently comprises a filter assembly and an interface for delivering material from the apparatus to an assay unit.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a bodily fluid collector and a bodily fluid collection method. The bodily fluid collector of the present disclosure comprises a collection member and a storage member having a storage chamber. Moreover, the storage chamber of the storage member may be partitioned into a first chamber for receiving a bodily fluid and a second chamber for storing a preservative product separated from each other by fitting a lower end of the collection member with the storage member, such that the isolation of the bodily fluid from the preservative product is no longer dependent on the sealing of a thin film, but only needs to engage the collection member with the storage member, and also such that the mixing of the bodily fluid with the preservative product is no longer dependent on the damage of the thin film by a blade, but only needs to separate the collection member from the storage member. Since the operation is simple and convenient, it is possible to realize effectively simplifying the entire bodily fluid collection process.

The invention is directed to a pocket spittoon for tobacco users. The spittoon is configured in the form of a cylinder with rounded edges, terminating in a removable, watertight cap secured by screw threads. An aperture is provided in the cap, covered by a watertight lid, such that the user may discreetly open the aperture and expel saliva and used tobacco into the spittoon. The spittoon further provides a disposable absorbent liner which will contain the saliva and used tobacco.

Two embodiments of a cuspidor funnel are described, each of which may be securely attached to an empty beverage container, and then detached from the container with the container being disposed of after use. A first is attached to a standard sized beverage can while the second is structured to be attached to a standard sized beverage bottle. The can embodiment includes a cylindrical structure that snaps onto the beverage can top rim and positions a funnel neck into the opening of the beverage can typical of a press-tab opening soda or beer can. This funnel neck receives fluid captured by the angled funnel wall formed on the top face of the cuspidor funnel. The beverage bottle embodiment includes a generally cylindrical structure that is threaded onto the beverage bottle opening typical of most single serving plastic beverage bottle containers.

A spittoon constructed from a container including a tamper resistant seal, selectively operable flip top, absorbent medium having a masking odor, an adhesive property when wet, and extended antibacterial, antifungal, and/or germicidal properties.
