what is a flocked swab?

The cell medical company flocking swab is made of nylon fiber flocking technology. The front end of the flocking swab rod is coated with nylon short fiber fixed vertically so that there is no absorption hole in the whole collection swab collection area. Learn more

The sample will not disperse and remain in the fiber, which is conducive to faster and more efficient elution.

To limit the damage to the sample and improve the accuracy of detection, the cotton swab is made of completely inert parts.

Our flocked swabs are famous for their stable and reliable performance and excellent absorption and elution ability.

what are flocked swabs used for?

Flocked swabs are specimen collection devices that are ideal for use in diagnostic testing.

They are capable of efficiently collecting organisms and cells at the collection site and have the ability to rapidly release cells.

If the swab head is flocking, it is a flocking swab.

1. Sample collection and transportation.

The outbreak of the new crown epidemic, no matter where we are. We may have been exposed to nucleic acid testing, and most of the sampling swabs used by medical staff are flocked materials.

The nasopharyngeal sampling swab is composed of a nylon short fiber fluff head and medical-grade ABS plastic rod. The role of nylon short fiber is like a soft brush, which can effectively improve the collection of cell material; the capillary movement between the fibers forms a strong hydraulic pressure, thereby taking in the liquid sample; at the same time, the sample is close to the surface of the swab and is easy to wash.

What Makes Flocked Swabs Different than Traditional Swabs?

We all know cotton swabs, but we may not know flocking sampling swabs.
XiaoLee will discuss with you what flocking swabs are and what are the advantages of flocking swabs over cotton swabs.

Our company uses the existing technology “spraying technology” to vertically attach millions of nylon microfibers to the head of a medical-grade handle through the flocking process of electrostatic charge. The function of vertical nylon fiber is similar to that of a soft brush. Using this soft brush in the sampling process makes the user feel no foreign matter. At the same time, the flocking swabs used in different parts adopt different breaking points, and the rod adopts different thicknesses to make the softness different.

Traditional cotton swabs cannot 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.

For example, nasal swab, the upper end of the rod is thinner and softer, and its breaking point is longer.

    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.

    Nasal Swab VS Oral Swab

    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.

    in addition,

    The serum antibody test is to draw venous blood,

    No need to fast!

    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.

    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.

    flocked swabs for sample collection

    flocked swabs for sample collection

    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.

    To do a good job of normalization prevention and control, we should accelerate the improvement of detection capacity and carry out nucleic acid and antibody detection on a large scale.

    This is not only conducive to accurate prevention and control, maintaining people’s health, but also conducive to the rational flow of personnel and promoting the full resumption of work and production.

    Nasopharyngeal swabs are used for nasopharyngeal sampling of respiratory diseases such as COVID-19, influenza, avian influenza and hand foot mouth disease.

    For nasopharyngeal Swab Pcr Test, Pay Attention to the Following Points:

    1. Please do not take antibiotics a few days before rhinitis swab Pcr Test.

    2. Do not rinse your mouth with disinfectant or smear the lesion a few hours before making a nasopharyngeal swab.

    3. Don’t eat, smoke or drink a few hours before making a nasopharyngeal swab.

    4. If the patient’s turbinate is hypertrophic and the nasal tract is narrow, and the insertion resistance of nasopharyngeal swab is relatively large, we can’t use force rashly. We can try to use the other nasal cavity, or directly use oropharyngeal swab to collect.

    5. After sampling, gloves shall be replaced, hands shall be disinfected, and disinfectant shall be sprayed on the place where the patient has touched.

    In special times, you should also remember to wear a mask and do a good job in personal hygiene. Once you find a virus, please isolate it to avoid re infection.

    Unlike traditional swabs, when the sample does not come out of the mattress core.

    Nylon Flocked Swab has an open fiber structure that can immediately transfer the sample cells to the liquid medium.

    *Rapid absorption (the improved sample collection)

    The static electricity is sprayed on the fibre and fixed evenly and vertically on the top of the coater.

    This powerful capillary effect quickly absorbs cell samples.

    *Increase analysis sensitivity:

    Nylon flocked cotton swab can quickly elute more than 95% of the original sample,

    so it is easy to improve the analytical sensitivity.

    *Just collect, capture and transport:

    Peel off the pouch, collect cell samples,

    and clip the applicator shaft into the provided delivery medium or cuvette tube.

    *Quantitative volume transfer:

    Measurable and consistent absorption and transfer from the patient to the test tube,

    without an internal mattress core,

    disperses and holds precious samples like traditional fiber swabs.

    In contrast, the entire sample remains close to the surface for rapid and complete elution.

    *Vertical nylon fiber:

    Such as a soft brush, can improve the collection of cell samples.

    The capillary interaction between nylon fiber bundles not only facilitates the strong water absorption of cell samples

    but also keeps the cells close to the surface, which is more convenient for elution.

    *Certified without inhibitors and interferences:

    2. Flocking swab samples release more.

    The capillary action between nylon fiber bundles promotes the strong hydraulic absorption of liquid samples. The sample remains on the surface to make elution easier. In the traditional cotton swab, most of the samples collected are still captured in the fiber matrix of the head, which is not easy to release or the release amount is small. Flocked swabs have been shown to release up to 95% of the sample, compared with 25% for standard fiber pointed swabs. If the sample size is particularly small, the use of flocking swabs is particularly important.

    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, disposable sampling swab is made of better quality nylon flocking swab.

    This makes flocking swabs an ideal choice for PCR Swab Test. Therefore, for scientists using PCR technology, the new flocking swab is PCR compatible and does not contain RNase and DNase.

    Features of Flocked Swab-oral swab

    Viral infection is a respiratory infection. Generally, the incubation period of virus infection is less than one week. The symptoms of virus infection are: pharyngeal conjunctival heat, respiratory tract infection, hemorrhagic cystitis, diarrhea, pericarditis, chronic interstitial fibrosis, fever, etc. The diet should be light, eat more vegetables and fruits, quit smoking and alcohol, and don’t eat spicy and stimulating food. At present, during physical examination, the health and Family Planning Commission requires hospitals to use nasopharyngeal swab or throat swab to detect the virus.

    Flocked swabs of Cell medical are famous for their stable and reliable performance and excellent absorption and elution ability.

    People who have done nasal swab testing must be deeply impressed by the taste. The normal length of nasal swab is about 15cm, and it is almost 2 / 3 of the depth when collecting. Does the depth of this direct attack on the soul make your heart question: is our nose so deep?

    In fact, the nasal cavity is far from the “superficial” nostrils we see.

    Continue to go deep into your nostrils, and you will find that it is suddenly bright and unique.

    Nucleic acid sampling is an important part of anti epidemic work.

    It is very important to standardize the operation of sampling technology. It is necessary to standardize various sampling operations in order to provide a strong guarantee for the accurate report of subsequent nucleic acid detection.

    How to correctly carry out nasopharyngeal swab sampling?

    Nasopharyngeal swab collection method

    Material preparation.

    75% alcohol, wet towel, test tube rack, collection tube, hand disinfectant, nasopharyngeal swab, biosafety bag, collection bar code.

    Operation preparation.

    1.Prepare medical protective mask (N95), face screen / goggles, protective clothing and latex gloves.

    2.Check the validity period and tightness of the acquisition tube; the virus preservation solution for discoloration and turbidity;  the validity period and packaging of nasopharyngeal swab.

    Check the collected information.

    1.Ask about recent nasal bleeding, obstruction, trauma, etc.

    2.Drive the collection tube on the test tube rack.

    3.Hand hygiene.

    4.Sampling person: takes the seat, tilts his head back later, and pulls the mask to his lips.

    5.Estimated acquisition depth (acquisition depth reference): generally half of the distance from the tip of the nose to the earlobe.

    6.The operator stands on the side of the subject, and the swab handle is inserted into one side of the nostril in a direction parallel to the upper jaw.

    A sense of resistance indicates that it reaches the nasopharynx; Rotate for one week, stay for 15 seconds, slowly take out the swab and insert it into the specimen preservation solution;

    The head of the swab shall not touch hands and other objects, the swab shall be broken, the tail shall be discarded, and the cover of the sampling tube shall be tightened.

    7.Hand hygiene.

    8.Wipe the tube cover with an alcohol wet towel and conduct hand hygiene again.

    9.Put the collection tube into the biosafety bag, seal the bag mouth, and put it into the second biosafety bag in the same way.

    About flocked swab specimens

    Nasopharyngeal sampling swabs are composed of nylon short fiber pile head and medical grade ABS plastic rod.

    The nylon short fiber acts like a soft brush, which can effectively improve the collection of cellular material;

    the capillary movement between the fibers forms a strong hydraulic pressure, thus ingesting the liquid sample;

    at the same time, the sample clings to the surface of the swab and is easy to wash off.

    Cell medical (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. Sterile flocked swabs collect and elute samples more effectively than any other disposable swabs on the market.

    The high-quality fiber and swab physical manufacturing process produce sterile flocking swabs, which is an ideal choice for rapid diagnostic testing.

    The rapid release of whole cells and the ability to better collect cells make these swabs the perfect specimen collection for any laboratory or research center.

    The ideal collection device must be able to absorb and release samples and maintain their activity.

    This is why flocking cotton swabs innovate sample collection equipment.

    Sterile flocked swabs collect and retain sample vitality, provide better sample yield, and allow rapid release of samples into liquid media.

    Attention

    1.The insertion direction of the swab is perpendicular to the face of the subject, not along the nostril.

    2.When there is resistance when the swab enters, it shall retreat slightly. Under the condition that the subject tolerates it, readjust the angle before continuing to insert, and do not insert violently.
