Speaking of a Covid sampling Swab. We believe everyone will not be unfamiliar at this time. Because the detection tool used at this time is a possible sample.

Sample swabs directly contact our human organs, such as nasal swabs and throat swabs for testing. Therefore, the selection of the material of the sampling head is very important, and the material of the sampling head is related to the detection of the test.

Flocked swab Sample with the large amount and release amount, a large number of materials contain substances that are difficult to affect dye detection.

Omi Keron strain Covid Swabbing

The team of Professor Huang of Nankai University discovered this through big data modeling and analysis.

The infectivity of Omi Keron is about 37.5% higher than the infectivity of the new crown mutant strain Delta.

The Netherlands and Brazil both reported cases of infection with the Omi Keron strain of the new crown virus on the 28th.

To reduce the spread of the Omi Keron strain, all the people in Bots have recently appeared in the agency. The movement has a new crown for passengers in Bonawana, Malawi, Lesotho, Swaziland, Namibia, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe. Virus detection.

On the 28th in Hubei Province, two cases of Miokeron strain occurred in the capital of Ottawa, Canada.

Following reports of Omi Keron infections in some countries including a week later, this strain was infected with a mutant strain that “needs attention” on the 26th.

The United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Russia, and Australia successively reported cases of infection with this strain on the 2nd and 28th. Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic have also reported relevant cases.

For the spread of the virus strain, many countries have prepared measures and taken protective measures.

How to obtain a nasopharyngeal swab specimen?

Overview.

Nasopharyngeal swab specimen collection of respiratory mucosal surface specimens is a method for the diagnosis of Covid-19 novel coronavirus in adults and children.

This operation can also detect patients with suspected respiratory infections caused by other viruses and bacteria.

There are no special contraindications for nasopharyngeal swab specimens. However, clinicians should treat the following conditions with caution: the recent history of nasal trauma or surgery, severe nasal septum deviation, chronic nasal obstruction, and severe coagulation.

Preparation for nasopharyngeal swab specimen sampling.

The nasopharyngeal swab is a special sampling tool, which consists of a sampling head made of soft plastic or flocked nylon. In addition to nasopharyngeal swabs, operators also need personal protective equipment (PPE) such as isolation gowns, non-sterile gloves, protective masks, and face shields.

Before starting to use, please make sure that all virus sampling tubes are labeled, and the analysis application form is filled incorrectly.

Nasal Swab Sampling Steps

We recommended that patients with suspected Covid-19 type coronavirus infection wear masks.

The patient took off the mask and blew his nose with a paper towel to remove excessive secretions from the nasal passages.

Take out the tissue. Slightly lift the patient’s head so that it can wipe into the nasal passage. Ask the patient to close his eyes to alleviate the slight discomfort caused by the operation.

Along the nasal septum, gently push the swab above the bottom of the nasal passage forward until you feel a sense of resistance indicating that the swab has reached the nasopharynx.
Insert the swab in the nostril parallel to the upper jaw.

If resistance is encountered during pushing the flocked swab, the scraper should be withdrawn, try to adjust the angle and then push again, at the same time closer to the bottom of the nasal passage.

The depth of the nose insertion should be equal to the distance from the nostril to the opening of the external auditory meatus. CDC recommends keeping the sampling head for a few seconds after it reaches the nasopharynx, allowing the sampling head to absorb the secretions, and then slowly rotating the swab to discharge it slowly (people who have done nasopharyngeal swabs will appreciate which kind of sourness Cool feeling). Your institution may also recommend sampling for a few weeks after exiting the spin. Ask the patient to wear a mask.

Nasopharyngeal swab specimen processing.

Open the sampling tube with virus transport medium, put in the flocking swab, fold out the sample tube in the groove, and discard the tail. Tighten the label sampling tube cover, and wipe the sampling tube with a sterile wipe.

Then place the sampling tube in the biohazard bag opened by the assistant. Some departments may require you to put the samples back in their original packaging and then send them for inspection. According to CDC guidelines, process the swab sample directly, or put the sample in a preservation solution or store it at room temperature.

Winter has arrived, affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Europe. Such as Cuba, the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, etc., the epidemic is continuing. More and more European countries have recently stopped restarting and tightening anti-epidemic measures. After the outbreak, European experience proved that: “Dynamic zero adjustment has been mastered” . “continuous changes in temperature rise have been controlled.” Advantages and captures “return to zero” and “constantly switch between limiting adjustments”.

COVID-19 mutant virus Omi Kiron strain has spread to all provinces in South Africa.

South African President Ramaphosa said on the 28th that in the next few weeks.

There may be a fourth wave of new crown epidemics in South Africa.

And the public should do a new crown virus sampling swab test as soon as possible and get the new crown vaccine.
In the evening, Ramafosa said in a televised speech that in the past 7 days.

The number of confirmed cases of the new crown in South Africa has risen to an average of 1,600 per day, while the positive rate of new crown virus testing in South Africa has risen from approximately 2% to 9% in the previous week.

If the newly emerging confirmed cases continue to rise, South Africa may enter the fourth wave in the next few weeks.
Lamafosa said that the recently emerged mutated virus, Omi Keron virus, has spread to all provinces in South Africa.

At present, immunization is still the most important means of protecting oneself and others.

The emergence of the Omi Keron virus has sounded a wake-up call for the whole world.

Several countries, including South Africa, have recently reported confirmed cases of Ome Keron, and the World Health Organization listed the virus as a “variety of concern” on the 26th.

About the European epidemic

European experts believe that the recent occurrence of the “epicenter” of the global epidemic in Europe is related to factors such as disease awareness, premature “unblocking”, and insufficient vaccines. The most critical factor-the effect of excessive pendulum movement, which swings from side to side at a strict angle. We must do a good job in the swap test of the COVID-19.

Herd immunity？

Doing a good job of a virus swab test, testing and vaccination is the top priority.

At the beginning of the disease outbreak, Patrick Valence, the chief scientific adviser of the United Kingdom, put forward the theory of “herd immunity”. Now in the world, the EU has completed 7% of the population protection range of about 6%, and still cannot solve the fourth wave of epidemics.

The proliferation of medical resources film festivals appeared. The incidence is higher in the northern region. 79% of people abroad have received local injections. The number of the above cases has reached 9.8 million, and the proportion of the British population is 14.6%. New highs since the beginning of winter, the peaks of the virus wall in various states have taken turns, and no emergencies have occurred. The theory of “in the iron face, group immunity” has broken down.

“Coexisting with the Virus” Nonsense.

Mistakes in the fight against the virus continue to disrupt growth and even increase risks. From the beginning of the new century, the “labor shortage” and supply chain crisis in many countries can end this. Over the past year or so, Europe has had to return and fall in the policy choices of “severe cold and epidemic prevention” and “economic recovery”. The vicious circle of “high control-unraveling-epidemic rebound-re-management”.

However, as the life expectancy of relevant countries or regions has dropped significantly, the problems that gradually emerge after the outbreak of the disease will have a more severe and instantaneous impact.
It has achieved great success by adhering to the goal of zero-clearing the epidemic. Even eager to announce “coexistence with the virus”, trying to adopt a third response method under the situation of repeated zero-sum dynamics.
But, there will be such a road there? The result of choosing to “coexist with the virus” at this stage is nothing more than harming more people’s lives.

How to Choose a Correct Virus transport medium for COVID-19 Testing

Disposable virus sampling tube

Disposable virus sampling tube

At present, the form of New Coronavirus is still very serious.

As the first step of covid-19 detection, the importance of sample collection and preservation is beyond doubt.

The influencing factor is sample collection; If there is a problem with the collected sample, the result is invalid regardless of the subsequent treatment.

Selecting appropriate virus transport media and collecting flocking swabs can improve the efficiency of new crown detection.

Almost all virus preservation solutions on the market contain non inactivated viruses directly, resulting in high infection risk for sampling, transportation and testing personnel.

Therefore, the front line of epidemic prevention needs to be able to inactivate virus samples directly.

At 37 ° C, we compared the preservation effects of cell medical (Dongguan) preservation solution containing guanidine hydrochloride and guanidine isothiocyanate with that without guanidine salt on avian coronavirus.

After 1-7 days of storage, under the same condition of 37 ℃, the preservation rate of virus nucleic acid was basically maintained at 100% when it was preserved with cell medical (Dongguan) preservation solution;

·Use virus preservation solution that can protect the sample from high temperature inactivation.

The results showed that high temperature inactivation had no significant effect on the integrity of coronavirus nucleic acid when coronavirus nucleic acid samples were preserved with high temperature inactivator.

The virus preservation solution developed by Cell medical (Dongguan) company is divided into inactivated and non inactivated. Different preservation solutions can be selected according to different test requirements and test conditions. If you have any questions or needs, please call us. Choosing cell medical (Dongguan) virus transport media solution in China is your right choice.

Furan compounds (guanidine isothiocyanate or guanidine hydrochloride, etc.) are typical protein denaturants.

They are often used to extract cell lysis in nucleic acid and inactivate virus. However, the furamethoxam component does not have the ability to work at room temperature.

Because the ability to preserve viral nucleic acid is easy to lead to sample degradation, it is not suitable for preserving new coronavirus samples. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you choose the preservation solution without guanidine salt.

To this end, we call on the majority of medical personnel to select non inactivated virus transport media if they take samples for the purpose of nucleic acid detection and do not need to culture live viruses.

Vtm Swab | Virus Transport Medium with Sampling Swab

Vtm Swab | Virus Transport Medium with Sampling Swab

Use a virus medium that inactivates the virus.

At present, covid-19 detection is mainly to detect viral RNA, which needs to divide the virus.

Therefore, as long as the integrity and stability of virus nucleic acid can be guaranteed, there is no need to preserve live virus.

Therefore, in the current situation of fighting COVID-19, it is ideal to inactivate the virus while collecting samples. Some manufacturers have also introduced inactivated transport medium, but its inactivating component is guanidine salt.

The results showed that the salt forming component storage solution had insufficient storage capacity for viral nucleic acid at room temperature, which was easy to cause sample degradation.

Therefore, we recommend the use of virus preservation solution containing non guanidine protein denaturants.

The volume of solution in the sampling tube should be appropriate.

① When sampling each sample separately, we recommend that you select a virus sampling tube containing 1ml storage solution to ensure the correct storage capacity. It can not only meet the downstream needs of nucleic acid extraction and detection. Compare with 3ml storage solution. Triple the virus concentration!

② For large-scale preliminary screening and mixing test, we should choose to put the samples of 3-5 people into the sampling tube.

·Use a virus preservation solution that can transport and preserve samples at room temperature.

If the delivery temperature does not meet the standard, the viral nucleic acid may degrade, resulting in a “false negative” test result!

On the contrary, if cell medical uses a virus storage solution that can transport and stably store virus nucleic acid at room temperature.

We solved the problem of sample transportation and improved the accuracy of test results.

·Use virus preservation solution that can protect the sample from high temperature inactivation.

However, the research reports of Beijing Center for Disease Control and prevention in the Journal of “clinical chemistry” and Beijing Preventive Medicine Research Center show that high temperature inactivation can lead to the degradation of virus nucleic acid, thus reducing the detection rate of virus nucleic acid. Therefore, The false negative rate of New Coronavirus nucleic acid detection is high.

What is flocking swab?

Flocked swab refers to the process of applying multiple fibers on the surface of adhesive coating; If the cotton swab is a Flocking material, it is a flocking swab.

It is a one-time sampling cotton swab composed of nylon short fiber velveteen wool head and ABS plastic rod.

It is suitable for oronasopharynx samples, cervix, vagina samples, laboratory tests, etc.

So, what is the difference between flocked cotton and traditional cotton?

Because it does not have the Du cushion core structure of the traditional sampling bed, the sample setting out is difficult, which affects the integrity of sampling.

Compared with cotton swab, the whole sample is adsorbed near the surface of the sampling head and can be released quickly and completely.

The nylon fiber in the vertical direction can improve the cell collection effect as a soft brush. Under the strong hydraulic pressure, the liquid sample is adsorbed on the surface close to the sampling head by nylon fiber bundle, so it is easy to release.

Why is a flocking Swab better than a traditional cotton swab?

Compared with traditional samples, flocking swabs have the following differences.
1. The Cell medical  flocking sample sampling swab does not have mutually absorbed nuclei and cannot disperse and collect samples.
2. The flocking cotton swab can be collected quickly, so that the whole sample can adhere to the villus surface and elute fully.
3. The vertical nylon fiber is like a soft bristle brush, which can improve the effect of collecting cell samples.
4. The capillary action between fiber bundles promotes the strong hydraulic absorption of liquid samples and makes the samples close to its surface easy to elute.
5. Flocking cotton swab is an ideal method to collect a large number of cells. It can not only elute quickly, but also release these cells into the delivery medium quickly.

Some customers inquire:

Are nucleic acid tests all about poking the throat?

Will you poke your nose?

“Poke the nose” through the Internet is more accurate,

is that true?

Don’t panic, let’s learn about it with Xiao Liu from Cell medical!

 

When doing nucleic acid testing,
There is a very important project,
Just do a throat swab
There are two types of throat swabs-nasopharyngeal swab and oropharyngeal swab sampling.

Currently
Most hospitals use
Oropharyngeal flocked swab
Because-it is the most convenient to collect samples and less painful.

But there are rumors,
The detection rate of nasopharyngeal swabs is higher,
is that true?
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Studies have shown that the poison load of nasopharyngeal swabs in patients infected with the new coronavirus is much greater than that of oropharyngeal swabs.

Focus on:
Wear a mask when you go out!
Wear a mask when you go out!
Wear a mask when you go out!

The important thing is said three times!

 

Nucleic acid detection, antibody detection

confuse?

After the new coronavirus infects the human body, it will first reproduce in the respiratory system. Therefore, it can be determined whether the human body is infected with the virus by detecting the viral nucleic acid in the sputum and nasopharyngeal swabs.
To
After a period of infection, usually 7-10 days, the human body will produce specific antibodies against the virus. IgM antibodies will appear first, and then IgG antibodies will appear. Therefore, detecting these specific antibodies can determine whether the human body has been infected with the virus. ,

If allowed,

You can, according to your own tolerance,

Choose whether to do a nasopharyngeal swab or an oropharyngeal swab.

Flocked swabs for sample collection

The flocked swab deposits nylon fibers on the surface of the medical ABS rod in order in a certain direction through the electrostatic field to form a brush layer. The layers are fully parallel and perpendicular to the surface of the internal rod.

The brush head can be used for Virus cell collection.

It can be used for sampling the natural cavities of the human body such as oral cavity, nasopharynx and laboratory detection.

Why flocked swabs?

The flocking swab deposits nylon fibers on the surface of the medical ABS rod in order in a certain direction through the electrostatic field to form a brush layer. The layers are fully parallel and perpendicular to the surface of the internal rod. The brush head can be used for DNA collection. It can be used for sampling the natural cavities of the human body such as oral cavity, nasopharynx and laboratory detection.

So that there is no absorption hole in the sampling area of the whole sampling swab.

And the sampling sample will not be dispersed and retained in the fiber, which is conducive to faster and more efficient elution.

Traditional cotton swabs can not completely collect and elute samples, while flocking swabs can elute 95% of samples.

Therefore, the use of flocking swabs has great advantages for various sample collection applications.

Nasopharyngeal flocked swab;

Flocked swabs have some advantages;

1. Sampling is comfortable and easy to use;

Flocking swabs now basically use “spray technology”, which vertically attaches millions of nylon fibers to the head of medical ABS swab rod through the flocking process of electrostatic charge.

The function of the vertical nylon fiber is similar to that of a soft brush. The use of this soft brush in the sampling process makes the user feel free of foreign objects. At the same time, the flocking swabs used in different parts adopt different breaking points, and the rod adopts different thickness to make the softness different.

For example, the nose swab is thinner and softer at the upper end of the rod, and the breaking point is longer, which fully conforms to ergonomics.

2. Flocked swab samples release more;

The capillary action between nylon fiber bundles promotes the strong hydraulic absorption of liquid samples. The sample is kept on the surface to make elution easier. It is much larger than the traditional winding cotton swab. The experimental research shows that the collection and release of flocking swab can reach 95% of the sample, while the cotton swab is only about 20%.

Because most of the samples collected by the cotton swab are easy to be intercepted in the fiber matrix layer of the head during release, it is not easy to release or release a small amount.

3. Flocking swab has biocompatibility and is an ideal choice for PCR;

In order to limit the damage to the sample and improve the accuracy of detection, while the flocking swab is PCR compatible and does not contain RNase and DNase.

Operation method of flocked nylon swab:

Take the sampling method of oropharyngeal swab as an example;

1. First, ask the patient to sit down, then let the patient tilt his head back, open his mouth, and make an “ah ~” sound.

2. The sampler fixed the patient’s tongue with a tongue depressor, and used a flocking swab to cross the root of the tongue to the posterior pharyngeal wall, tonsil recess, lateral wall, etc.

3. Wipe repeatedly for 3 ~ 5 times to collect mucosal cells.

4. Slowly take the swab out of the mouth, vertically put it into the virus preservation solution, break the tail of the swab, and tighten the sampling tube to avoid leakage.

5. Send to the laboratory for testing as soon as possible.

Swab flocked matters needing attention:

1. The swab shall be placed vertically in the sampling tube, and shall not be wiped to the bottle mouth to avoid pollution.Viral Transport Medium.flocked swab copan.

2. It is best to send it or send it to the laboratory for inspection on the day of sampling.

3. Before submission for examination, it must be verified that the specimen is consistent with the submission form. The appearance of the sampling tube must clearly write the patient’s name and basic information.

4. The submitted samples must submit (or submit the electronic version in advance) screening information form, inspection form and other materials.

How much do you know about COVID-19 antigen detection technology?

In late spring and summer of 2020, the COVID-19 epidemic was initially resurgent beyond all expectations, and unexpectedly came back with a strong attitude.

“COVID-19” On August 26, 2020, in order to control the spread of the epidemic.Abbottswab.

In addition, the federal government will spend $760 million to buy 150 million copies of reagents and transport them to nursing homes and schools in about a month.

Antigen detection.

By the end of October 2020, with more similar tests under way and waiting for emergency approval.

Three more antigen test kits have obtained the emergency use authorization (EUA) of the US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA), and the total number has reached 7.

In addition, although the World Health Organization was unwilling to do so at first.

It also approved the use of two antigen detection kits following the emergency authorization of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in September and October 2020.

In the invention and transformation caused by covid-19 pandemic, detection technology has become a hot spot of biotechnology and engineering innovation.

In addition, more extensive measures such as wearing masks, maintaining social distance, isolating and tracking contacts.

And faster and cheaper screening tests provided by Cell medical provide hope for people’s urgent need to combat this infectious disease and make progress.

Many places in the world that seemed to have controlled the epidemic in the early stage broke out again.

Which shocked public health experts and called on everyone to carry out rapid and frequent testing.

Covid 19 self test rapid antigen test.

According to a report recently released by the Rockefeller Foundation.

If only to meet the testing needs of primary and secondary schools and nursing homes.

The United States should complete 200 million rapid tests per month by January 2021.

Although people tend to detect with higher accuracy, antigen detection with accuracy of only 70% .

People can also find infected persons omitted from previous tests through frequent detection. And provide sufficient accuracy for continuous screening.

According to Mara g. Aspinall, a practical professor and medical diagnostic expert at Arizona State University (ASU) in Tempe.

The co-author of the report, the number of tests required to screen the entire U.S. population may be twice that required by schools.

“Now it’s time,” Aspinall said. “We have an agreement and testing reagents. I hope the community can reduce the spread of the virus and control the epidemic again.”
