A system and method for preparing and collecting samples for analyte testing. The system can include a sample preparation system and a sample collection system coupled to the sample preparation system. The sample preparation system can include at least one of a deformable self-supporting receptacle comprising a reservoir and a freestanding receptacle comprising a reservoir. The reservoir can be adapted to contain a liquid composition. The sample collection system can be positioned in fluid communication with a reservoir of the sample preparation system, and can be adapted to capture an analyte of interest. The method can include providing a fluid path defined at least partially by the sample preparation system and the sample collection system, positioning the liquid composition in a reservoir of the sample preparation system, and moving at least a portion of the liquid composition in the fluid path to the sample collection system.

The system of claim 1, wherein the sample preparation system further comprises a lid adapted to be coupled to at least one of the freestanding container and the deformable self-supporting receptacle, wherein the sample collection system is coupled to the lid. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the sample collection system includes a support comprising at least one of immobilized antibodies and immobilized oligonucleotides, the support being positioned in fluid communication with the liquid composition. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the sample collection system includes at least one magnet adapted to capture the analyte of interest. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the sample collection system includes a collection filter adapted to collect the analyte of interest. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the analyte of interest includes at least one of a microorganism, a parasite, a biomolecule, a chemical, a metal ion, a metal-ion-containing complex, and combinations thereof. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the analyte of interest comprises at least one of Salmonella spp., Acinetobacter spp., Vibrio spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens, Campylobacter jejuni, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, Clostridium difficile, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus, Norovirus, Norwalk virus, Rotavirus, Adenovirus, and a combination thereof. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the analyte of interest comprises at least one of staphylococcal enterotoxin, Bacillus diarrheal toxin, Clostridium difficile toxin, aflatoxin, peanut allergen, egg allergen, and a combination thereof. 9. The system of claim 1, wherein the sample preparation system further comprises enrichment media adsorbed onto an inner surface of the deformable self-supporting receptacle, the enrichment media adapted to grow at least the analyte of interest. 10. The system of claim 5, wherein the collection filter comprises at least one of nylon, PTFE, modified cellulose, fiberglass, paper, and combinations thereof. 11. The system of claim 5, wherein the collection filter is functionalized to capture a specific analyte of interest. 12. The system of claim 5, wherein the collection filter is functionalized with at least one of antibodies and oligonucleotides. 13. The system of claim 5, wherein the sample collection system further comprises a housing configured to retain the collection filter in a fluid path defined at least partially by the sample preparation system and the sample collection system. 14.
