A. What is a flocked swab?

 

Flocking refers to the process of applying multiple lengths of fiber to the surface of the adhesive coating; if the swab head is flocked, it is a flocked swab. It is a disposable sampling swab composed of nylon short fiber lint head and abs plastic rod. Used for oral nasopharynx, sampling, cervical-vaginal sampling, laboratory testing, etc.

 

 

 

Second, why use flocked swabs?

 

Flocked swabs are made of nylon fiber flocking technology, the front end is coated with short nylon fibers fixed in a vertical manner, making the entire collection swab collection area without absorption holes, the sample will not be scattered and retained in the fibers, which is conducive to faster and more efficient elution. Traditional spun silk swabs do not completely collect and elute samples, while flocked swabs can elute more than 85 percent of the sample collected. So the use of flocked swabs has great advantages for various sample collection applications.
