Abstract: A sample container cap (or “cap”) is configured to be used with a sample container for collecting fluids. The cap has (1) a bottom portion having a bottom cavity configured to retain a sample container, a bottom opening configured to permit fluid to pass therethrough and into the sample container, and (2) a top portion connected to the bottom portion, wherein the top portion includes a top opening configured to permit fluid to pass therethrough. The sample container cap has at least a (1) a first position in which the top opening and bottom opening are not aligned and the cap is configured so that fluid cannot pass therethrough, and (2) a second position in which the top opening and bottom opening are aligned and the cap is configured so that fluid can pass therethrough and into the sample container.

Abstract: A sample container cap (or “cap”) is configured to be used with a sample container for collecting fluids. The cap has a body and a shutter connected to the body. The cap has a (1) first, open position in which at least one body opening and at least one shutter opening are not aligned and the cap is configured so that fluid cannot readily pass therethrough, (2) second, open position in which the at least one body opening and the at least one shutter opening are aligned and the cap is configured so that fluid can pass therethrough, and (3) third, closed and locked position, in which the at least one shutter opening and the at least one body opening are not aligned and fluid cannot readily pass through the cap, and the cap is configured to not be moved to an open position.
