Product Details

Material of tip and shaft

The WeLab transport swab with the medium is a quality specimen collection tool. The swab tip is usually viscose tip material for easier absorption of a liquid-based specimen, while the shaft is a snappable PS stick allowing for easier access into specimen location.

Sterilization and Packing

All specimen collection tools from WeLab are sterile. The delivery is in an individual peel pack that facilitates the sterility of the swabs. The peel pack also acts as a packaging method. Other packages are in bulk, including 1000 pieces of transport swabs with the medium. However, the bulk purchase still retains the individual packages for each swab to maintain hygiene and sterility.

Mediums and Application

The transport medium accompanying the swabs can be Amies, Amies medium containing charcoal, Cary Blair, Stuart, or the Stuart medium containing charcoal. All the mediums appear semi-solid, essential for carrying the specimen without drying out, rendering the specimen invalid. The charcoal present in some mediums helps prevent contamination by absorbing any harmful content in the sample.

Amies mediums are essential in the transport of microbiological specimens. The medium contains inorganic phosphates that provide a buffer to the specimen helping in maintaining the osmotic balance.  Cary Blair mediums work best with the preservation and transportations of samples such as stool and rectal swabs. The medium has a low nutrient content limiting the specimen’s replication capability, thus maintaining its viability. A Stuart medium is similar to the Cary Blair medium in its non-nutritional content. However, Stuart mediums transport and preserve samples from the throat, skin, and wound and vaginal swabs.

WeLab has all multipurpose swabs and mediums for transportation.
