Summary:A method and system for processing a sample in a fluid is provided. An assembly comprising a cap prefilled with a fixative solution, a valve, and a container for storing a tissue sample are provided. The valve is adapted to be situated between the cap and the container such that fluid can flow from the cap into the container when the assembly is upright, but the fluid cannot backflow from the container to the cap when the assembly is horizontal or inverted. Cette invention concerne un procédé et un système de traitement d'un échantillon dans un fluide. L'ensemble selon l'invention comprend un capuchon pré-rempli avec une solution de fixation, une soupape, et un récipient pour stocker un échantillon de tissu. La soupape est conçue pour se monter entre le capuchon et le récipient de façon que le fluide puisse s'écouler depuis le capuchon jusque dans le récipient quand l'ensemble est en position verticale, mais que le fluide ne puisse pas remonter du récipient jusqu'au capuchon quand l'ensemble est à l'horizontale ou retourné.
