Oral and Nasal Swabs

I.APPLICATIONS

Rapid detection of the total number of bacteria on the surface of objects or water samples, high sensitivity, good repeatability, simple, in the food hygiene, environmental protection and other industries have a wide range of applications.

II. Detection Theory

After the sample is collected by the water sample collector or cotton swab, ATP is released by the action with the bacterial lysate or virus in the swab, and luciferase catalyzes the reaction of ATP and luciferin to give off light. ATP concentration is quantified by detecting the luminescence value in the luminescence system.For living microorganisms, there is a good linear relationship between the luminescence value and the content of living microorganisms due to the relatively constant level of ATP

III. FEATURES

1. Nylon flocking technology is adopted to absorb samples more quickly

2. Fold point design, let the swab easily break and into the tube, more convenient to operate

3. Maximum sample elution and transfer, especially the collection of trace DNA samples

4. Special treatment with antibacterial agent to prevent microbial contamination

5. Steilized, DNA & RNA free Non-pyrogenic, non-toxic, GMP standard production, individually wrapped packaging, ensure reliable results

6. No necessary to dry the samples again, because of the strong antibacterial effect, the sample does not need to dry, can be directly transferred to the tube, can withstand more humid conditions
