Can I collect the samples myself using a home sterilized container?
No. Home sterilized container samples are not accepted for testing. We provide special collection bottles which are both pre-sterilized and contain a buffer to enhance bacterial growth. These bottles are provided free of charge and can be obtained at the Health District Laboratory, on any work day, Monday - Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.
