Flocked Sampling Swab

Flocked Sampling Swab used for cell & virus specimen collection and it has been designed for Nasopharyngeal clinical diagnostics. The single use sampling swab utilizes state of the art "spray on technology"that the flocking process by means of an electro-static charge perpendicularly attaches millions of nylon microfibers on the medical grade handle tip. 

Features of Flocked Sampling Swab:

■ Ergonomic and anatomic design, perpendicular nylon fiber acts  like  a  soft  brush  thus  improves patient comfort and efficiency in cell specimen collection.

■ Improved sample collection, sprayed-on fibers statically charged and attached to the applicator tip in  a uniform perpendicular manner and by means of strong capillary action cell specimens are rapidly absorbed.

■ Superior sample elution, with an open fiber structure it instantly dislodges the specimen cells into the liquid medium, unlike traditional wound swabs when the specimen is entrapped in the mattress core.

■ Increased assay sensitivity, flocked swabs are proven to elute >95% of the original sample rapidly thus easily resulting in improved assay sensitivity.

■ Quantitative volume  transfer,  measurable and  consistent  uptake and  transfer from  patient  to  the  test  tube  has no internal mattress core to disperse and entrap the precious sample like traditional fiber wound swabs.

How does Flocked Sampling Swab work?

The flocked sampling swab is ideal for collecting large amount of cells and rapid elution of the specimens that instantly releases the cells into the transport medium. It has been well recognized and adopted by the diagnostic test kit manufacturers who produce reagents in molecular genetics, forensics and clinical laboratories sectors. 

The perpendicular nylon fibers act like a soft brush, allowing the improved collection and release of both cellular and liquid samples.

Besides the best quality flocked sampling swab, various sponge sticks, saliva collection swab, Polyester Swab

and sponge brushes are available. Welcome to select your favored products and contact us if you have any questions!
