ur sterile nylon flocked swabs are premium specimen collection devices manufactured by electrostatic flocking technology. Millions of perpendicular nylon microfibers form a soft brush-like tip, with no absorbent core to trap samples. They deliver high sample uptake and exceptional elution efficiency, widely trusted for molecular diagnostics, cytology, microbial testing and clean validation applications worldwide.
Compared with traditional wound swabs, flocked swabs transfer most collected specimens into transport buffer or eluent, boosting test accuracy and reproducibility. Multiple tip shapes, shaft lengths and breakpoint positions are available to fit nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, buccal, cervical and surface sampling requirements. Each swab is individually packed and gamma-sterilized, free of DNase, RNase and endotoxin to avoid interference with downstream assays.
