Frequently asked questions
Which types of specimens is this system designed for?
This system is specifically engineered to support the viability and transport of viruses, chlamydia, mycoplasma, and ureaplasma.
Do the swabs break off at the right length?
Yes. Each swab features a precision-scored tip that snaps cleanly at the exact length needed to fit perfectly inside the transport tube.
How long can these be stored before use?
These units are shelf-stable and approved for room temperature storage for up to 1 year prior to their expiration date.
Why are there glass beads inside the tube?
The integrated glass beads provide increased surface area to improve cell adhesion and help facilitate a more uniform spreading of the specimen during the culturing process.
Are these swabs sterile?
Yes, every unit is sterilized via gamma radiation and packaged in individual peel-pouches to maintain clinical sterility until the moment of use.
Are these ready to use straight out of the box?
Yes, the system is designed for immediate clinical use; each unit is self-contained in a sterile peel-pouch, requiring no extra preparation.
Is the transport medium pre-reduced?
Yes, it contains a semisolid, pre-reduced transport medium to ensure optimal specimen preservation during transit.
Is the seal secure for transport?
Absolutely. The cap mechanism is designed to automatically secure the swab shaft, creating a tight, reliable seal to maintain sample integrity during transit.
Is the swab tip material appropriate for sensitive samples?
Yes, the system utilizes Dacron-tipped swabs, which are a standard professional choice for collecting and transporting sensitive biological specimens safely.
How can I track the expiration of these kits?
For full traceability, every individual tube label has its own unique lot number and printed expiration date.
