As for disposable sampling swabs, why are flocked swabs better?
Flocked sampling swabs are the latest development in disposable sample collection devices. As for flocking, flocking refers to the application (long fibers), which is called flock coating on the surface of the adhesive coating. To improve sample collection, there are different types of flocking swabs, such as throat swabs, genetic testing swabs, forensic DNA testing swabs, gynecological cervical sampling swabs, microbial sampling swabs, etc., which have obvious advantages in many applications.
What are the advantages of widely available flocked sampling swabs?
1. Flocked swabs provide better sampling.
Flocked swabs are a good choice for rapid diagnostic testing because they allow better collection of cells or organisms at the collection site and ensure rapid release of the entire cells.
2. Enhance diagnostic sensitivity, professional flocking technology turns each fiber into a velvety cotton swab, thus forming hundreds of thousands of contact points for better collection and release of collected specimen samples. The increased number of target cells helps improve the sensitivity of rapid diagnostic tests compared to non-aggregated swabs.
3. Rapid Elution Aggregate Swabs are fully integrated (i.e. contain no inner fabric or other core absorbing samples), allowing more samples to be collected and retained. This not only provides better sample yield, but also enables faster and complete release of the sample into the liquid medium, allowing
