While there is a mysterious absence of "does not contain" to complimenty 
"contains", you can use "is not in" and "is in" for the same purposes.

Meanwhile, even English has its glaring absences, like having no 
singular third-party gender-independent pronoun, leaving us to invent 
works like "s/he" or awkwardly using the plural "they" instead.
