offending sample
It looks like "contra-muestra" refers here to an actual sample of a medical nature (i.e., tissue, a culture, blood) that was not obtained or stored in accordance with a particular health care regulation. Thus, neither "counter sample" nor "counter evidence" would work, both being too vague and nebulous for the present context.
Instead, "offending sample" describes the most salient characteristic of the sample in the present context (i.e., why it is being referred to in Spanish as "contra")--it has for one reason or another violated health care regulations.
Suerte.
Happy New Year.
