I'm not sure what you are refering to really, but all specimen containers need to be sterile, so we can be sure that any microbe that is isolated is actually from the specimen,and not a contaminant.

Anything in an operating room needs to be sterile for the safety of the patient. As for specimen containers, if a surgeon finds a suspicious mass during a surgery, they are required to send a sample to the lab for analysis.

so that no other germs get onto the specimen and end up giving you a wrong diagnosis
