What are UTM Swab, Swab Kits?

On November 9, 2021, South Africa detected a B.1.1.529 variant of the new coronavirus from a case sample for the first time. In just 2 weeks, the mutant strain became the absolute dominant mutant strain of the new crown infection cases in Gauteng Province, South Africa, and its growth was rapid.

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 samples, the results will be invalid regardless of the subsequent processing.

Selecting appropriate virus transport media and collecting flocked swab can improve the detection efficiency of new crowns.

Quick questions and answers about COVID-19 UTM Swab testing?

COVID-19 is a new variant of the very common viral family known as coronavirus, which can lead to respiratory tract infections, from the common cold to more serious diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Although coronavirus is most commonly found in animal-like cattle, cats, and bats, in some cases, coronavirus can be transmitted and transmitted among humans, such as COVID-19 and SARS, of which nearly 8000 people were sick when they broke out in 2003.

According to the information currently shared by the new crown virus database GISAID, the number of mutation sites of the new crown virus Omi Keron mutant strain is significantly more than that of all the new crown virus mutant strains that have been circulating in the past two years, especially in the virus spike (Spike) protein mutations. . It is speculated that there may be three reasons for its emergence:

(1) After being infected with the new coronavirus, patients with immunodeficiency have undergone a long period of evolution in the body to accumulate a large number of mutations, which are transmitted by chance;

(2) a certain animal group infection New coronavirus, the virus undergoes adaptive evolution during the spread of animal populations, with a higher mutation rate than humans, and then spills into humans;

(3) This mutant strain has continued to circulate for a long time in countries or regions where the mutation monitoring of the new coronavirus genome is lagging. , Due to insufficient monitoring capabilities, the intermediate generation viruses of its evolution could not be detected in time.

The genome analysis of the Omi Keron mutant strain showed that its mutation site does not affect the sensitivity and specificity of mainstream nucleic acid detection reagents in my country.

The mutation sites of the Omi Keron mutant strain are mainly concentrated in the highly variable region of the S protein gene.

The nucleic acid detection reagent primers and probe-target regions were published in the eighth edition of the "New Coronavirus Pneumonia Prevention and Control Program" (China CDC Virus The ORF1ab gene and N gene released by the disease to the world).

However, data from multiple laboratories in South Africa suggests that nucleic acid detection reagents that detect the S gene may not be able to effectively detect the S gene of the Omi Keron variant.

Yes,’ if you’re going to a public place, it’s recommended to wear a mask. As long as the nose and mouth are covered, a scarf, handkerchief, or homemade non-medical mask can play a protective role.

It’s really important to wash your hands before and after putting on a mask.

COVID-19 Sample Collection and Transport kits

How do we collect COVID-19 samples?

Specimen collection requirements

Personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements for sampling personnel: N95 and above protective masks, goggles, one-piece protective clothing, double-layer latex gloves and waterproof boots; In case of contact with the patient’s blood, body fluids, secretions or excreta, replace the outer latex gloves in time.

Specimen type

1. Upper respiratory tract specimens: including pharyngeal swab, nasal swab, nasopharyngeal extract, etc.

2. Lower respiratory tract specimens

3. Stool samples: Patients with diarrhea symptoms need to collect stool samples.

Specimen collection method

Sampling flocked swab_Sample Collection

Sampling flocked swab_Sample Collection

1. Pharyngeal swab: wipe bilateral pharyngeal tonsils and posterior pharyngeal wall with 2 plastic rod swabs planted with pile at the same time, immerse the swab head into a tube containing 3ml virus preservation solution (isotonic salt solution, tissue culture solution or phosphate buffer can also be used), discard the tail, and tighten the tube cover.

2. Nasal swab: gently insert a plastic rod swab with a flocking nylon faucet into the nasopalatine part of the nasal canal, stay for a moment, and then slowly rotate and exit. Take another plastic rod swab with polypropylene fiber head and collect the other nostril in the same way. Immerse the above two swabs into the same tube containing 3ml sampling solution, discard the tail, and tighten the tube cover.

What kind of Media do you use to transport specimens?

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the Virus Transport Medium has played a major role. Sample and nasal swabs are used to protect samples in the sample tube with virus preservation, which improves the accuracy of detection. Virus preservation solution is a solution for virus sampling, preservation and detection. What kinds of virus preservation solution are added to the virus sampling tube?

virus transport medium

virus transport medium

There are two types of virus preservation transport Media: inactivated and non inactivated.

The following briefly introduces several principles for the selection of virus preservation solution.

Non inactivated virus transport medium:

The non inactivated type does not contain lysate.

On the basis of Hank’s, BSA (bovine serum albumin) amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients required by the virus are added, which can maintain the activity of the virus in a wide temperature range and maintain the originality of the sample to the greatest extent.

For nucleic acid extraction and detection of the virus, virus culture and separation.

Characteristics of non inactivated preservation solution:

COVID-19 Sample Collection and Transport kits Use process

COVID-19 Sample Collection and Transport kits Use process

1. It can maintain virus activity for detection or virus isolation;

2. It has no inhibitory effect on subsequent nucleic acid amplification;

3. stored in cold storage(at 2 ℃ ~ 8 ℃ ).

Inactivation virus transport medium:

Inactivation preservation solution can inactivate the virus in the sample by fully mixing the collected sample with virus lysate and virus nucleic acid preservation solution, and effectively ensure the integrity of virus nucleic acid in the sample.

About the preserved viral RNA samples: used in gene detection, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), PCR detection and so on.

Inactivation preservation solution includes guanidine salt containing and guanidine salt free.

1. Guanidine salt

(1) Instantly cleaved and inactivated to reduce the risk of sampling;

(2) Stored stably at room temperature for 2 weeks;

(3) It can match most nucleic acid extraction reagents.

2. Non refined salt

(1) Inactivated instantaneously to reduce the virus sampling risk, and the virus may recover its infectivity after dilution;

(2) Stored stably at room temperature for 2 weeks;

(3) It can match most nucleic acid extraction reagents.

3. Direct expansion preservation solution

(1)Inactivated instantaneously to reduce the virus sampling risk, and the virus may recover its infectivity after dilution;

(2)Stored stably in cold storage for 24-48 hours;

(3) Directly added to the nucleic acid amplification system as a template;

(4) Match most nucleic acid extraction reagents and nucleic acid release agents.

Flocked Swab Meaning

Flocked Swab Meaning

This article will introduce what is the flocked swab, the purpose of the flocking swab, the application of the COVID-19 flocked swab and the material of the flocked swab, etc. The flocked swab manufacturer introduces. Give you a comprehensive understanding of flocking swabs.

what is the flocked swab?

Flocked Swab Meaning

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the word “nasopharyngeal swab” has become a high-frequency word we talk about every day.

In recent months, the new crown pneumonia epidemic broke out again in countries all over the world. It’s worrying to watch the data released by WHO every day!!!

Flocked swab material

The flocked swab is made of nylon fiber flocking technology, and the front end is coated with nylon short fiber fixed vertically 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.

The flocked swab is to deposit nylon fibres on the surface of the medical ABS rod in a certain direction through an electrostatic field to form a brush layer.

What is the purpose of flocked swabs?

Flocking swabs are the best choice for nucleic acid detection because they can better collect cell or biological samples at the collection site and release samples quickly.

Application: forensic medicine, DNA, microorganism, virus sampling, Oral swab, nasal swab etc.

What are flocked swabs used for in COVID-19?

The autumn and winter communication season is a period of the high incidence of common cold and influenza, and the most important means to control the epidemic situation is to select real patients with new crown pneumonia from a large number of respiratory tract patients.

At present, the most effective and widely used new crown sampling methods are nasopharyngeal swab and oropharyngeal swab sampling.

Flocked Swab Meaning _Application of flocking swab in COVID-19

Flocked Swab Meaning _Application of flocking swab in COVID-19

Nasopharyngeal swab collection method.

1. Keep the patient’s head still and remove the secretions on the middle surface of the anterior nostril;

2. Measure the distance from the nose tip to the earlobe with a swab and mark it with your fingers. Insert the swab into the nasal cavity in the direction perpendicular to the nose (face). When encountering resistance, it reaches the posterior nasopharynx, keeps the swab in the nose for 10 ~ 15 s, rotates it gently for 3 ~ 5 times, and take out the test flocked swab.

According to the American Society of Microbiology guidelines for the submission of clinical microbial specimens, the nasopharyngeal swab should be twisted on the nasopharyngeal mucosa, retained for 10-15 seconds, and then removed.

Feeling of nasal flocked swabs sampled by U.S. netizens.

It’s hard, and the tough guy still cries.

I have experienced both sampling methods.

It is not a painful cry, but a stress response caused by strong stimulation of the weak nasopharyngeal mucosa, with tears and tears.

netizens 02

netizens 02

No, as a girl, I don’t feel much about the nose swab sampling, except its excitement went to my head.

netizens 03

The more serious one is like eating mustard oil, and the lighter one is like blowing out your nose for several days.

Our netizens are so cute.

About oropharyngeal swab sampling.

Feeling of oral flocked swabs sampled by China's netizens.

Feeling of oral flocked swabs sampled by China’s netizens.

Pharyngeal(oral) swab: the collection process is faster (just a few seconds) and less painful, but you may feel nausea and vomiting, and some people have no obvious reaction.

As we are in the epidemic period, we should improve our awareness of self-protection when doing nucleic acid testing.

Nasal swab pcr test

Nasal swab pcr test

Nasal swab pcr test COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test Kit

Detection of COVID-19 by nasal swab PCR is an accurate and reliable method. Positive detection means you may have SARS-CoV-2. Negative detection means you may not have SARS-CoV-2 when testing.

In order to ensure your safety, if you have symptoms of COVID-19. Or people who have been exposed to the virus and tested positive should be tested.

What is the symptom of COVID-19?

If you have the following symptoms,if you have the following symptoms, please buy covid-19 antigen rapid test kit immediately or go to a nearby hospital for PCR test.

1.Fever;

2.General fatigue;

3.cough;

4.Dyspnea or even respiratory failure;

5.Nausea;

6.vomiting;

7.abdominal pain;

8.diarrhea;

Symptoms of New Coronavirus pneumonia are not necessarily typical, and some patients may not have clinical manifestations at the early stage of New Coronavirus infection. Then clinical manifestations will appear, that is, “asymptomatic infection” in incubation period.

In other words, try to avoid activities in places with crowd gathering, closed space and poor ventilation.

What is nasal swab PCR test?

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) uses a piece of DNA as a template. Then, with the participation of DNA polymerase and nucleotide substrate, the DNA was amplified to a sufficient number for structural and functional analysis.

Scientists use PCR technology to amplify a small amount of RNA in the sample into deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and replicate until COVID-19(if present) is detected.

What should we pay attention to before doing nucleic acid test?

1.Try not to eat 2 hours before sampling to avoid vomiting.

2. Do not smoke, drink, drink water or chew gum 30 minutes before sampling.

3. The tester needs to wear a mask correctly and remove the mask before testing;

4. Wear it immediately after testing, and prepare a spare mask for easy replacement at any time after pollution.

5.When you feel sour and itchy in your nose or sneeze, you can immediately cover it with a paper towel or elbow.

Before collecting nasopharyngeal swabs and before being tested, the collection personnel shall be informed whether they have relevant past medical history. For example, history of nasal surgery, history of deviation of nasal septum, blood diseases, throat diseases, etc

How long will we know the pcr test results?

The test results of sampling in the morning are generally available from 18:00 to 19:00.

The detection results of afternoon sampling can generally be queried around 22:00.

What’s the difference between the PCR and antigen tests for COVID-19?

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR): PCR is the most reliable and accurate method to detect active infection. PCR tests usually give results in a few hours.

Antigen detection: detect protein fragments on the surface of covid-19. Antigen detection usually takes only 15 to 30 minutes.

How can we prevent COVID-19?

Firstly, keep good personal hygiene habits, wear masks when going out, wash hands frequently, clean the room, and wipe the floor and other furniture with disinfectant. Second, disinfect your hands with 75% alcohol every time you go out and go home, reduce the number of times you go out, and wear qualified masks. And the diet should also be light, do a good job of physical exercise and enhance personal physique.

Most importantly, if our conditions permit, we should vaccinate and conduct multiple nucleic acid tests.

If our Nasal swab pcr test results are positive,what should we do?

If our test results are positive, don’t be afraid. We should wear masks and go to the nearby Hospital for follow-up in time.

Repeat the nucleic acid test.Don’t be afraid and hide the test results. Timely medical treatment is the best choice.

Facing COVID-19 variation strain

Facing COVID-19 variation strain

Facing COVID-19 variation strain. How should we deal with it?

What are the variant strains of COVID-19?

The variation of COVID-19 B.1.621 was first confirmed in Columbia in January this year. The World Health Organization named it Miao strain and recently listed it as a mutant strain that needs attention. Its influence level is lower than that of the delta strain. Preliminary data show that the Miao strain is similar to the beta strain and will weaken the effectiveness of the antibody.

At present, there are four variants defined by who as “needing attention”, including alpha, beta, gamma and delta. And five variants “needing attention”, including ETA, iota, kappa, lambda and mu.

How should we deal with it?

Weightier than Mount Tai, I think the most important thing about this new crown epidemic is: life is above everything else and responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai.

We often ask: where is the value of life? After this epidemic, we answer is: responsibility.

A person and an enterprise must have a sense of responsibility before their life can be valuable. If a person is not responsible and has no sense of responsibility, his life is worthless.

First, Let’s do a good job in personal protection. Don’t worry too much.

As the general public, we can prepare some masks, medical goggles,Rapid Antigen Test Kit,New Coronavirus test kits and so on.We advocate new crown nucleic acid testing at home
