sampler/ sample container
Well, for sure it's something to do with campionario. But I guess it depends on the functions of the campionato cited above.
If it is "A mechanical device that is used to obtain and analyze samples", that is, if it not only collects but also analyzes, you can translate it as a sampler. (The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000)http://www.bartleby.com/61/63/S0056300.html
If it's solely for keeping the samples, you could also say sample container.

: I think the function is just analysis, so it should be just "sampler" - here in the context of electrophoresis: http://www.promega.com/geneticidproc/ussymp6proc/roberts.htm - five lines down, "automatic sampler device"
