  • Swab tube made from polypropylene with 5 ml deep gel column guarantees maximum protection and significantly improves sample viability.
  • Tube has a unique “venturi hour” design which prevents disintegration or breakdown of gel column during specimen transport.
  • Once the swab is inserted undesirable bubbles and breaks in gel automatically squeeze out and eliminates air pockects which are harmfull to some bacterias.
  • Unique “venturi hour” tube design centralizes the swab and optimizes the moisture control.
  • Tubes conveniently fit regular test tube racks for safe transport and easy storage.
  • 133 mm long swab shafts guarantees access to difficult sampling locations without contaminating the swab handle or the user.
  • Soft swab tips are inert and non-toxic to micro-organisms and patients.
  • Double action cap slides over the neck of swab tube and tightly grips the inside and outside of the tube.
