How do I select flocked swabs for influenza testing?
1. Elements to consider
The following are some basic factors to consider when purchasing flocked swabs, the efficacy of the swab depends on
l The material used
l The design of the shape
l The tip of the swab
These may seem like minor differences, but they can make a big difference when it comes to sampling and testing for infection.
2. Materials
Standard flocked swabs are made of nylon, which uses surface tension between the fibers to capture biological material for sampling, for the release of collected organism samples for testing.
Warrican flocked swabs are made of a two-component upper filament material that allows not only superior collection but also more complete shedding of the organism, which is essential for obtaining standard results.
3. Shape design
When you choose a flocked swab for detecting influenza, you need to consider the shape design of the swab. While the standard flocked swab is superior to the traditional fiber swab design, the
Warrican is a manufacturer with a proprietary manufacturing process that provides swabs with multiple lengths of nylon fibers to provide the most effective collection and shedding of swabs.
Flocked swabs that have been coated with biopolymers are offered to improve biological recovery and survival. However, publication of this study through Biology
concluded that proteolysis at the tip of the swab may affect the storage viability of the collected sample, and Warrican flocked sampling swabs are made from the highest quality materials to ensure reliability and efficiency.
The selection of flocked swabs is especially important when considering the flu season and the need to provide the necessary stock quickly and reliably, and Hualicon has completed all of its own manufacturing operations.
Therefore, we can deliver the best quality products in a timely manner according to market demand, and we have consistent quality assurance worldwide. Welcome to consult Shenzhen Huarakang Bio-medical Technology Co.
