The top of the flocked swab is made of nylon fibers, which are sequentially attached to the surface of the medical ABS rod by an electrostatic field, and DNA collection is performed with the layers perfectly parallel to each other and perpendicular to the surface of the internal rod.
Advantages of Huarikang flocked swab
1、Ergonomic and anatomical design
To improve patient comfort and efficiency of cell specimen collection.
2、Improve the sensitivity of the assay
The flocked swab proves to rapidly elute >95% of the original sample, easily increasing the sensitivity of the assay.
3、Easy to collect, break, and then transport
Open the package, collect the cell sample, and then partially break the swab fracture point into the shipping culture or the provided tube.
4、Certified as free of inhibitors and interference
The sampling swab is certified to be free of ribonuclease (RNase), deoxyribonuclease (DNase) and human deoxyribonucleic acid, and also free of any PCR inhibitors.
5. Ideal for taking automation
Compared to conventional wound fiber swabs, 4N6's DNA swab releases only trace amounts of fiber during the extraction process. This avoids the risk of clogging of the wash tubes and probes used by any liquid sampling robots.
6. Rapid absorption
Sampling spray and electrostatic charge flocking method, so that millions of nylon fibers vertically and uniformly attached to the end of the shank, the capillary action between the nylon fiber bundle, which facilitates the absorption of liquid samples like strong hydraulic type. Samples remain with the surface of the fiber, more convenient to wash off.
Traditional cotton swab is to trap the sample in the fiber matrix, the collected sample can only be released 20-30%. Flocked swabs, on the other hand, can completely capture cellular samples through the frictional effect of the direction of the swab fiber layer, which can eventually release more than 95% of the sample due to the concentration of cellular samples on the near surface of the swab fiber.
