Abstract:
The invention relates to a combined two-compartment device for diagnosing body liquids, which comprises: (a) an upper compartment for collecting and storing the body liquid; (b) a lower diagnostic compartment for diagnosing the body liquid at a diagnostic stage, said diagnostic compartment comprises a diagnostic strip; (c) an opening at the bottom wall between said upper compartment and said lower compartment, wherein said opening is kept blocked by a suitable valve until just before said diagnostic stage; and (d) a mechanism for releasing said blockage of said opening, thereby to allow flow of the body liquid to said lower compartment, and thereby to come into contact with said diagnostic strip and to affect the diagnostic strip accordingly.
