In general, swabs need to be preserved and sealed after nasal or oral sampling, and then sent to the laboratory for testing. The difficulty of this step is that it not only increases the exposure risk of the medical staff, but also may affect the virus activity due to improper preservation or sealing, and finally affect the test results.
Copan's UTM tube is loaded with 2-3ml of virus transport matrix, which has a high matching degree with its own flocking swab, so it is more convenient to collect, transport and store viruses.
But according to Apple's statement, Copan's "swab UTM" kit currently produces only a few thousand units a day. With Apple's support, production could expand to more than one million a week by early July to address the current shortage of cotton swabs in the United States.

That's exactly what America needs. According to Stefania triva, chief executive of Copan's parent company, the group received orders from all over the world. After expansion, the weekly output of UTM reached 1.2 million, and the weekly output of cotton swabs exceeded 5 million.
Global family business
Copan, now a leader in the industry, was founded in 1979 as a small Italian laboratory supplies distribution company with no production capacity at all. When sales were much higher, founder George Trevor began to lead the team to produce simple lab supplies such as straws (not drinks) and other plastic products.
