Description

Anal swab & test tubes containing preservation solution

The study found that these patients were positive not only in the nose and oropharyngeal swabs but also in the anal swabs, which proved the possibility of COVID-19 spreading through the fecal mouth.

Anal swab sampling kits;

Improve the detection rate of infected persons and reduce missed diagnosis;

It is more stable and sensitive than upper respiratory tract specimens;

Anal swab nucleic acid detection is feasible in isolation point operation;

If they cannot be sent to the laboratory within 48 hours, they should be stored at – 70 ℃ or below.

The pathogen samples shall be inoculated and separated as soon as possible after being sent to the laboratory.

After inoculation and separation within 48 hours, they can be stored at 2-8 ℃. If the inoculation is not carried out in time, the isolation shall be stored at – 70 ℃ or C.
