Many customers ask me why they should use flocked sampling swabs? You will know after reading the following comparison.
Conventional fiber swab: The sample is trapped by the interstitial space within the fiber mass, i.e. the sample is penetrated, diluted, and trapped within the fiber. Slow collection and even slower release.
Nylon flocked swabs: superior sample collection/release, release rate >80%
Flocked swabs take 3-5 seconds to collect a sample, while cotton swabs take 15-120 seconds or longer, which creates stress on staff during the diagnostic process. The only way to complete the collection and analysis more efficiently is to extract the sample faster.
Features of Huarikang flocked sampling swabs.
1、The use of spray dense flocking nylon fiber technology swab.
2, according to the analysis of different items corresponding to have a soft or brush texture swab, has reached a larger collection volume.
3、Disposable sterile injected swab rod with break point.
4、Flocked swab technology enhances the adsorption/release of specimens and improves the sensitivity of analysis.
5, No sample interception, which predicts faster and less specimen delivery.
In summary, the upright nylon fibers act like a soft brush to collect more cellular specimens. The capillary action between the nylon fibers enhances the aqueous sample load, and the samples are concentrated on the surface of the swab for easier elution. The nylon flocked swab can absorb and release more samples.
