[0125] Example Closed System Contaminant Collection Device Overview

[0126] Some embodiments of the contaminant collection device may be "closed," which means that fluid is transferred from the collection device to the detection device via a liquid-tight transfer mechanism. For example, a collection device and a detection device (such as a test strip or a cartridge holding a test strip) may be structured to be coupled together to provide a fluid-tight seal between the liquid-containing portion of the collection device and the test strip so that hazardous fluids, Drugs or vapors are completely contained and are not released into the atmosphere and are unlikely to cause additional harm to the user. Fluid impermeable can mean liquid impermeable, gas or vapor impermeable, or both, depending on the nature of the contaminants that the collection kit is designed to detect. Beneficially, this may provide the user with protection of the cartridge from possible contamination in the ...

Abstract

Contamination detection systems, kits, and techniques are described for testing surfaces for the presence of hazardous contaminants, while minimizing user exposure to these contaminants. Even trace amounts of contaminants can be detected. A collection kit provides a swab that is simple to use, easy to hold and grip, allows the user to swab large areas of a surface, and keeps the user's hands awayfrom the surface being tested. The kit also provides open and closed fluid transfer mechanism to transfer the collected fluid to a detection device while minimizing user exposure to hazardous contaminants in the collected fluid. Contamination detection kits can rapidly collect and detect hazardous drugs, including trace amounts of antineoplastic agents, in healthcare settings at the site of contamination.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 561,540, filed September 21, 2017, entitled "HAZARDOUS CONTAMINANT COLLECTION KIT AND RAPID TESTING," which U.S. Provisional The content of the patent application is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The systems and methods disclosed herein relate to environmental pollutant testing, and more particularly to test kits for detecting the presence and / or amount of antineoplastic agents. Background technique [0004] Antineoplastic drugs are used to treat cancer and are most commonly found in small molecule (such as fluorouracil) or antibody format (such as ritopramab). Antineoplastic drug testing is critical to determine the presence of contamination / leakage in hospital / pharmacy areas where drugs are used and / or dispensed. [0005] The properties of antineoplastic agents make them harmful to healthy cells and tissue...
