A fecal antigen specimen tube apparatus preferably consists of a 16. times. 75 mm screw-top specimen tube and a special screw cap assembly. The screw cap has a hollow "straw" with a specimen collection brush on the end. The screw-cap assembly can be removed from the specimen tube so that the brush end may be dipped into a fecal sample and rotated to collect a specimen. The cap assembly with specimen is then screwed back into the specimen tube to seal the container. The straw preferably has a number of openings along its length, which permits fluid to move back and forth through the straw as the specimen tube is agitated. Filters with pore sizes of approximately 100 microns are disposed over the openings to prevent larger pieces of fecal matter from penetrating into the straw. The filter, however, will permit most parasites to pass into the straw. The top of the straw (and cap assembly) is preferably sealed with a heat-seal film.

An electrical circuit control system with multiple sensing probes used to detect the presence of excessive accumulations of moisture, in its liquid or frozen form in single or multiple phase air refrigerant systems. The electrical circuit control system will disengage the related electrical system when electrically alerted by the detecting sensors that an abnormal level of liquid or ice has occurred. The detecting sensors operate independently, therefore the control system will function properly with one sensor being utilized or with more than one sensor in place. Further, it utilizes multiple sensors, for detection, that are remote from the circuit control system and connected by electrically conductive leads at one end to the circuit control system and at the respective other end to the detection sensors. After the excessive accumulation of liquid or ice has been removed, the air refrigerant system will remain in an off position until reset by removing and reconnecting the main power source. The detection sensors are installed at a determined location in the suspect areas, using rectangular clips that allow perpendicular adjustment of the detecting sensors to be located within the limited spaces provided by the manufacturers and at a position determined to be the most advantageous for early detection of abnormal levels of moisture accumulations in its liquid or frozen form.
