  • Patent number: 10842468
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a sample collection apparatus. The sample collection apparatus includes a self-sampling pad and a cell fixing container, wherein the sample collection pad includes a filter unit, the structure and material of which are such that cells, viruses and DNAs contained in vaginal secretions can be efficiently absorbed and attached to the filter unit and can be efficiently detached from the filter unit in a cell preserving solution after the filter unit is removed and put into the cell preserving solution. Thus, the filter unit includes at least one adsorbent layer which is formed of a hydrophobic material having low fineness and high resilience.

  • Publication number: 20180235584
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cell collection pad for cervical disease screening and a collection kit including the same. The cell collection pad takes the form of a wearable pad and includes a filter unit collecting cervical cells and an absorption unit absorbing vaginal secretions having passed through the filter unit, thereby collecting cervical cells from the human body in an easy and stable manner.

  • Patent number: 10036761
    Abstract: A cell smearing apparatus comprising: a mixed solution container accommodation unit accommodating a mixed solution container containing a mixed solution of cells and a preservation solution; a suction unit suctioning the mixed solution from the mixed solution container accommodated in the mixed solution container accommodation unit; a sensor unit sensing variation of the mixed solution suctioned by the suction unit; and a controller controlling a suctioning speed of the suction unit based on a value sensed by the sensor unit. The present invention allows cells to be examined to be smeared as a monolayer on a slide for microscopic examination.
