Are these cups sterile? Could they be used for urine testing?

No, they are not labeled as sterile, but they are clean enough for drinking.

A simple answer would be . . . ADEQUATELY. They definitely are not as "insulated" as a fully insulated cup, however, they do insulate better than your basic plastic or china cup.I sure hope this vague response helps.

yes they are dry cups, we do a lot of baking and need that type of measurement

The cups are made of heavy plastic and yes they are water safe. Hope this helps

I have used the cups for coffee, tea, herbal teas, grape juice, and several other fruit juices, eaten different foods from them and they are as clean and clear as they were when I purchased them 2 or 3 months ago. There are no signs of any type of stains on the cups. Norm Rohrabaugh

It depends on how long the urine had been in the brief. If it was a clean brief and this was the first urine specimen in the brief and it was VERY soon squeezed out, there is no reason that a strong positive should not be valid, in my professional opinion. On the other hand, urine from a male can be collected in a condom you know.

I apologize for not being able to give you an answer for that. They do hold up better than most, but I do not use them in a sterile environment, but I use them to keep my hands clean while working in the garden.

Yes, you can use them for wet cupping. They are boil-able so disinfecting is a cinch.

I don't think so. I gave them as a gift so I no longer have them to test for you. But I'm pretty sure the answer would be, no.

No -- they are silica crystals, which are not soluble or biodegradable. You'd be asking for a plugged-toilet problem. ...Steve N.

Don't think so, but these refillable cups didn't really work and I stopped trying to use them

They are meant to be disposable, not sterile when already opened. Luckily haven't experience, but then again might still work as a soft support.

Yes. I have tested wine, beer, soft drinks/sodas, fruit juice, lots of different types of tea and I even made a dedoction with tobacco (steeped the leaves in hot water) then tested the "brew". Haven't done a urine test so cannot say about that.

No they are not. They are ideal for cold beverages! Since they are double walked there are some insulating properties and will reduce sweating from the cup!

They are not sterile cotton swabs. The package is not sterile. Qtips.com might be a good source for other questions or concerns.

I actually looked into this. They have a proprietary cup and no other will work in the machine. I good thing is they are fairly inexpensive and the company is really easy to work with.

No, but there shouldn't be, if your using them for a drink like a Moscow Mule. The "copper" flavor mixed with lime+vodka+ginger beer. I really like these cups but they are tiny... Maybe 5 ounces.
