What are the characteristics of single-use flocked swabs?

Single-use flocked swabs are widely used in bacteriological sample processing, virological cell culture, DFA testing, rapid direct testing, enzyme immunoassay testing, polymerase chain reaction and molecular diagnostic-based testing, and forensic identification times are ideal. It can also be used for throat sampling of respiratory viruses such as influenza, swine flu, bird flu, hand, foot and mouth.


1. Sample collection process: The unique structure of the top of the disposable flocked swab can greatly increase the number of samples collected.


2. Sample dissolution process: Because the samples collected by the swab are basically on the surface of the swab, 95% can be released, which means that almost all samples can be washed out.
3. The top of the traditional cotton swab is an internal structure wrapped with cotton fibers. When sampling, the fiber mass is dispersed and left on the fiber, which reduces the precipitation efficiency of DNA with low content, and may even lead to false negative results of the test.





4. The top of the single-use flocking swab has a unique structure, which can almost completely extract and separate trace DNA, so the single-use flocking swab has more obvious advantages in collecting trace DNA.
