NextSWAB Next Generation Swab Features
The NextSWAB® is a cutting-edge, 100% plastic injection-molded swab designed for efficient biological sample collection. Measuring 6 inches in length, it features a unique head with two channels separated by a septum. This design effectively retains and releases collected oral and nasal samples, including mid-turbinate and anterior nares. The flexible swab head allows for easy access to crevices, ensuring optimal sample collection and release.
The NextSWAB® is compatible with various sample transport devices, making it ideal for pooling multiple swab samples in a single device. Its innovative design ensures that collected material is fully released into the transport media, eliminating the need to transport the swab itself. This feature facilitates rapid processing of concentrated liquid samples with robotic liquid handling systems or any laboratory workflow.
The swab requires no preparation for use and allows for the collection of a second sample in the same device, creating a more concentrated sample for improved test reliability. During initial R&D testing, the NextSWAB® demonstrated higher efficiency in collecting nasal samples with minimal user discomfort compared to flocked swabs.
