75mm (3 inch) Polypropylene (flexible) Shaft with Cotton Tip in short tube. For Patient use.
Ideal for: General swabbing where a small shaft is desired. Ideal for sampling the following organisms:
Pseudomonas, Streptococcus, Haemophilus, Bacteroides, Peptostreptococcus, Fusobacterium, Propionibacterium, Prevotella, Gonorrhoeae, anaerobes, microaerophilics.
Shelf Life: 2 years.
Sterilisation Method:
Gamma Irradiation to achieve a SAL of 10-6
Alternatives: TS/18
Applicable Standards: CE Marked : In vitro diagnostic medical device.
Known Limitations:
1. DO NOT REUSE. Single use Device that is not suitable for re-work or reuse.
2. Certain viruses and Micro-organisms have reduced viability on dry swabs so immediate transfer or premoisten with 1-2 drops of sterile saline after sampling is permitted (if lack of exudates) when transport is necessary to prevent cell stress or no recovery.
