Swabs for Testing Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Swabs for Testing Coronavirus (COVID-19)

COVID-19 testing is continually evolving. When conducting diagnostic testing for COVID-19, the CDC recommends Nasopharyngeal (NP) or Oropharyngeal (OP) swabbing. Depending on how the platform used to test the specimen, some tests are designed to analyze a swab specimen directly, without the use of any media. Other platforms require the swabs to be placed immediately into a sterile transport tube containing 2-3mL of either UniTranz-RT™ Universal Transport Systems, Opti-Swab® - Liquid Amies Transport Systems, or sterile saline solution.  Our foam or flock swabs are the ideal swab for nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal specimen collection when 2019-nCoV is suspected.
