Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a urine collection device (100) for collecting midstream urine; wherein said device, in the orientation intended during urine collection, comprising: a first recipient (2) for urine; a second recipient (4) for urine; and a moist soluble membrane (6); wherein said moist soluble membrane (6) is covering an upper opening (8) of said second recipient (4) for urine; wherein at least a part of the perimeter (10) of said moist soluble membrane defines an entry (12) into the first recipient for urine. The urine collection device is characterized in that it comprises a third recipient (14) for urine, wherein said third recipient for urine comprises an evacuated container; or wherein said third recipient (14) for urine comprises a container which is configured for becoming evacuated by being in fluid connection with a vacuum pump; wherein said urine collection device comprises a conduit (16) having an opening (18) in a first end (20) and an opening (22) in a second end (24) thereof; wherein said first end (20) of said conduit (16) is arranged at the interior of said second recipient (4) for urine; wherein said opening (22) in said second end (24) of said conduit (16) is in fluid connection with the interior of said third recipient (14) for urine; wherein said opening of said first end (20) of said conduit 16 comprises a moist soluble plug (26), thereby blocking access through said conduit between said second recipient (4) for urine and said third recipient (14) for urine until dissolution of said plug.
