Sterile Nasopharyngeal Collection Swab - Aluminum Shaft with Calcium Alginate Tip, 5.5 Inch

Premium Nasopharyngeal Collection Swab for Accurate Diagnostic Testing

This professional-grade nasopharyngeal collection swab features an innovative design that combines patient comfort with clinical precision, making it the ideal choice for healthcare facilities, laboratories, and diagnostic centers. Engineered with a flexible aluminum shaft and specialized calcium alginate tip, this medical-grade swab delivers superior specimen collection for respiratory infection testing including COVID-19, influenza, RSV, and other viral pathogens.

Advanced Design for Superior Sample Collection

The flexible aluminum shaft provides exceptional maneuverability during insertion, allowing healthcare professionals to navigate the nasal cavity with precision and ease. This thoughtful engineering significantly reduces patient discomfort while ensuring proper positioning for optimal sample collection. The 5.5-inch length is specifically calibrated to reach the nasopharynx effectively, providing the depth needed for accurate diagnostic specimens without causing unnecessary patient distress.

Calcium Alginate Technology for Enhanced Specimen Quality

The miniature calcium alginate tip represents a breakthrough in specimen collection technology. This biodegradable material offers superior absorbent properties that effectively capture and retain cellular material, mucus, and viral particles. Unlike traditional synthetic materials, calcium alginate creates ideal conditions for laboratory analysis by maintaining specimen integrity during transport and processing. The soft, gentle tip minimizes tissue trauma while maximizing sample yield, ensuring your laboratory receives high-quality specimens for accurate diagnostic results.

Uncompromising Sterility and Safety Standards

Each swab arrives individually wrapped and sterilized using validated sterilization protocols, guaranteeing the highest hygiene standards from package to patient. This single-use, disposable design eliminates any risk of cross-contamination between patients, making it essential for infection control protocols in hospitals, urgent care centers, testing sites, and clinical laboratories. The latex-free construction ensures patient safety, accommodating individuals with latex sensitivities without compromising performance or reliability.

Versatile Clinical Applications

While specifically designed for nasopharyngeal specimen collection, this versatile swab excels in multiple clinical scenarios. The miniature tip design makes it particularly effective for collecting samples from small cavities, wound care applications, and delicate anatomical areas where precision is paramount. Healthcare professionals trust this tool for routine screening, diagnostic testing, epidemiological surveillance, and research applications where sample quality directly impacts patient outcomes.

Built for Demanding Healthcare Environments

Manufactured from premium-quality materials, this nasopharyngeal swab delivers consistent performance even under the rigorous demands of high-volume testing environments. The durable aluminum shaft resists bending and breaking during use, while the securely attached calcium alginate tip maintains its integrity throughout the collection process. Whether you're conducting mass screening events, managing emergency department workflows, or performing routine diagnostic testing, this swab provides the reliability and dependability your facility requires.
