What is flocked swab?
Flocked swab is the surface of nylon fibers deposited on the medical ABS rod in a certain direction in sequence by electrostatic field to form a brush layer, whose layers are fully parallel to each other and perpendicular to the surface of the internal rod, through which the brush head is used for DNA collection, which can be used for sampling use in the natural cavities of human body such as oral nasopharynx, and also used for laboratory testing use, etc.
Moreover, hundreds of experimental analyses have found that nylon flocked swabs have the highest extraction efficiency, while, in comparison, nylon flocked swabs have the highest recovery efficiency compared to other material types of swabs.
What are the advantages of flocked swabs?
-Compared with the traditional winding swab, the flocked swab can collect and release 3 times more samples without causing any harm to human body.
-Sampling is comfortable and easy to use. Flocked swabs are now essentially "spray-on technology," in which millions of nylon fibers are attached vertically to the head of a medical ABS swabbing rod through an electrostatically charged flocking process. The vertical nylon fibers act like a soft brush, and the use of this soft brush during the sampling process allows the user to feel no foreign matter. At the same time, different parts of the flocked swab take different fracture points, and the rod uses different thicknesses to make the softness different.
-The sample collection time of flocked swab is 3-5 seconds, which is fast and convenient to improve work efficiency. Only by extracting samples faster can we complete the collection and analysis more efficiently.
-And by the directional friction effect of the brush-like fiber layer, the cell sample can be captured completely, so the flocked swab is especially beneficial for micro DNA collection.
-A large number of clinical experiments have shown that flocked swabs have a better effect on the collection and delivery of clinical microbiological specimens compared with ordinary sterile cotton swabs. This is especially true for specimens that cannot be sent in a timely manner and that have been left in place for too long.
