Picture of sampling flocking swab

Why use flocked swabs？

COVID-19 is New Coronavirus’s variant coronavirus, which can cause pneumonia after human infection. It belongs to an acute respiratory infectious disease, which is highly infectious and generally susceptible to people. It is easy to replicate in the upper respiratory tract of human body. In general, new crown nucleic acids are detected rapidly within 96 hours after infection. Testers can find viruses in the human upper respiratory tract. Experiments show that flocking swab can quickly elute > 95% of the original samples, and easily improve the detection sensitivity.

Application of sampling flocked swabs.

The upper respiratory tract of the human body includes the nasal cavity, pharynx and throat. That is to say, if a person is infected with COVID-19, he can extract the nucleic acid of the virus in the nasal cavity, pharynx and larynx in 96 hours. Therefore, we generally sample these locations when we carry out the rapid detection of new crown nucleic acid.

we distinguish swabs by different sampling positions. For nasal sampling, we become nasopharyngeal flocked swabs; For oral sampling, we become oropharyngeal flocked swabs.

What is the difference between nasopharyngeal swabs and oropharyngeal flocked swabs?

Nasopharyngeal swabs and oropharyngeal swabs differ in material hardness in addition to the differences in sampling sites. The nasopharyngeal swab is generally slender and soft, and can change its shape along the nasal cavity, which is convenient for the sampling personnel to probe into the upper respiratory tract along the nasal cavity. The oropharyngeal swab will be thick and hard.

In terms of comfort, there are also great differences between the two. Since gas exchange is often carried out in the nasal cavity, the swab shall be fully extended to the end of the nasal cavity during sampling to ensure that sufficient concentration of samples are collected. This usually brings very uncomfortable feeling to the subject, and sometimes even leads to epistaxis.The oropharyngeal swab only needs to collect the pharyngeal sample, and only needs the person to open his mouth for collection. Although it occasionally causes a temporary feeling of nausea, the discomfort will not last too long.

There are also obvious differences between the two in drug loading. Studies have shown that in patients infected with the new crown virus, the amount of drug carried on the nasopharyngeal swab is significantly higher than that on the oropharyngeal swab. In other words, the detection amount of nasopharyngeal swabs is generally higher than that of oropharyngeal swabs.

In addition to nasopharyngeal flocked swabs and oropharyngeal swabs, there are anal swabs. As the name suggests, anal swab is a kind of test for patients with gastrointestinal symptoms. It can effectively improve the detection rate, but it is not widely used because of the inconvenience of sampling.

Attention

After sampling the flocking swab, we should immediately put the swab into the storage tube to avoid polluting the sample. Then, the subsequent rapid detection process of new crown nucleic acid was carried out. No matter what kind of swab is used, the process of rapid detection of new crown nucleic acid is the same. The rapid detection of new crown nucleic acid was completed in four independent areas of the laboratory, and the test results were obtained.

4. There is no residual specimen, so the specimen processing process can be accelerated.

5. Swabs are sterilized and packaged separately

How to use cm-98000 oral flocked swab

① Tear the sealing paper on the disposable oral swab package, and gently take out the disposable sampling swab from the bag（ Note: the head of disposable oral swab shall not touch other objects other than the inner wall of oral cavity to avoid contamination.)

② . extend the hand-held sampling swab into one side of the oral cavity, from inside to outside at the inner wall mucosa, and then move the swab up and down for 15-20 times. The number can be increased according to the actual situation, with moderate strength. It is appropriate to stick close to the inner wall mucosa of the oral cavity, so as to ensure that the one-time sampling swab head can dip in the exfoliated cells of the oral mucosa everywhere; According to the same method, collect on the other side of the inner wall of the oral cavity.

③ After collection, please take out the disposable sampling swab from the mouth and put it into the sampling tube, push the disposable sampling swab head, put the sampling head into the storage tube, tighten and save it（ Note: too many rotations will lead to dilution or loss of samples. After sampling, make sure that the disposable sampling swab does not touch any other object.)

how to collect nasopharyngeal swab?

Posted on 2021年9月1日2021年12月21日 by Dr. Lee

how to collect nasopharyngeal swab?

After several times of nucleic acid sampling and testing, citizens wondered: why do some people require nasopharynx swabs and some people can collect oropharyngeal swabs? Today, experts from cell medical will explain to you.

What is a sampling swab?

At present, except for special diseases, COVID-19’s nasopharyngeal swabs and oropharyngeal swabs are the most common ways of collecting.

Studies have shown that nasopharyngeal swabs have higher detection rate of COVID-19 nucleic acids than oropharyngeal swabs. Because the nasopharyngeal cavity is relatively closed and the virus is easier to accumulate. However, whether it is oropharyngeal swab or nasopharyngeal swab, the key is that the collection action must be standardized, in place and meet the standards. As long as the acquisition is standardized, both methods can achieve the expected detection purpose.

How to collect a nasopharyngeal swab?

nasal swab collection method_How to collect a nasopharyngeal swab？

1. The patient’s head tilts back (about 70 degrees) and persists. 2. Use a swab to estimate the interval from the ear root to the nostril. 3. Insert from the nostril pen to the face. The deepening interval should be at least half of the length from the earlobe to the tip of the nose. Reach the posterior nasopharynx after encountering resistance, stay for several seconds to absorb secretions (generally 15 ~ 30s), and rotate the swab for 3 ~ 5 times. 4. The swab should be gently rotated and taken out, and the swab head should be immersed in a collection tube containing 2ml lysate or cell preservation solution containing RNase inhibitor. 5. Break the sterile swab rod at the top, discard the tail, tighten the tube cover and close it with sealing film.

oropharyngeal swab collection

collection method of oral swabs

1. Ask the patient to gargle with normal saline or clear water first.

2. Wet the flocked swab in sterile normal saline.

3. The patient sat down with his head tilted back and his mouth open, accompanied by an “ah” sound.

4. Fix the tongue with a tongue depressor, and the swab jumps over the root of the tongue to the posterior pharyngeal wall, tonsil recess, lateral wall, etc.

5. The bilateral pharyngeal tonsils should be swabbed back and forth with moderate force for at least 3 times, and then the posterior pharyngeal wall should be swabbed for at least 3 times, 3 ~ 5 times.

6. Remove the swab to prevent touching the tongue, pituitary, oral mucosa and saliva.

7. Immerse the swab head into the preservation solution containing 2 ~ 3ml virus.

8. Break the sterile swab rod near the top, discard the tail, tighten the tube cover and close it with sealing film.

Nasal swab painful

Posted on 2021年8月27日2022年3月22日 by Dr. Lee

People often feel scared during the sampling process using nasopharyngeal swabs. However, is it really painful to use a nasopharyngeal swab?

It is certain that nasopharyngeal swab testing does not produce painful symptoms, but some patients may feel uncomfortable.

The doctor used a medical flocked swab to enter the nasopharynx and then took a small amount of secretions. The hospital can isolate pathogenic bacteria through bacterial culture.

During the operation of the sampler, the patient will have slight nausea and discomfort, which is generally within a tolerable range. The medical staff’s techniques are gentle and skilled, so there is no pain. We can check the bacteria that cause the infection through nasopharyngeal swabs, and select targeted drugs for treatment based on the results of the tests.

Which is painful, nasal swab or throat swab？

In contrast, nasal swabs are more painful. Pharyngeal swab is the behavior that doctors use a medical flocked swab to dip secretions from the throat for monitoring. During the collection of pharyngeal swab, the tested person may have symptoms of nausea and vomiting without other obvious pain. Nasal swab is to insert a cotton swab into the deep part of the nasal cavity to dip secretions for monitoring.

Application scenario diagram

Why nasopharyngeal swabs are better than oropharyngeal swabs

According to reports in the literature, the positive rate of nasopharyngeal swabs is higher than that of oropharyngeal swabs.
The patient has good tolerance and can basically take samples without anesthesia after skilled operation
The exposure risk of the sampler is lower than that of oropharyngeal swabs.
