    Description

    COPAN ESwab 480C Swab Collection System
    (Case of 500)
    ESwab™ combines a COPAN-invented flocked swab with 1mL of Liquid Amies in a plastic, screw cap tube. The innovative system elutes over 90% of patient specimen into the liquid medium. The result is evidence-based, improved pathogen recovery, expanded testing capabilities, and better patient care.
    Multipurpose ESwab™ offers exceptional clinical outcomes and value to laboratories and point of care providers:
    Improved pathogen recovery for traditional bacteriology culture
    Liquid based system easily processed on automated specimen processors and liquid handling pipetting systems, minimizing manual handling
    Homogeneous sample for more consistent and precise Gram Stains
    Can be used for Molecular and Rapid Antigen testing on an increasing number of manufacturers' platforms.
    ESwab™ has been tested and validated in full compliance with CLSI M40-A2: Quality Control of Microbiological Transport System Standard. The FDA cleared collection and transport system is suitable for aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious bacteria maintaining viability for up to 48 hours at room or refrigerator temperature (Neisseria gonorrhoeae survival at 24 hours per CLSI standard).
    Single Regular Size Nylon® Flocked Swab with 80mm Breakpoint packaged with 1 mL Liquid Amies Medium in Skirted Tube with Plastic White Capture Cap - Individually Packaged, Sterile
