Sterile Surface Swab Sampling Tube

A sterile surface swab sampling tube is a specialized consumable used for collecting samples from sterile surfaces. It is widely applied in medical, hygiene, and laboratory testing. The tube is typically made from polypropylene (PP) or polyester, materials known for their strength and stability. This ensures that the tube does not break or deform during swabbing. It is equipped with a protective cap and sealing cover to prevent cross-contamination and to make sample storage and transportation safe and convenient.

Product Features

Single-use and sterile:Each sampling tube is individually packaged in a sterile condition. It can be disposed of directly after use, eliminating the need for cleaning or sterilization.

High-quality material:

Made of medical-grade polypropylene, non-toxic and odor-free, resistant to mild acids and alkalis, and compliant with medical and hygiene standards.

Scientific design:

The swab head is designed to reduce secondary contamination during wiping and to ensure sample purity and accuracy.

With buffer solution:

The buffer solution inside the tube enables effective sample collection without damaging the tested surface.

Wide application:

Ideal for hospital infection monitoring, cleanroom environmental testing, operating room air sampling, and other scenarios requiring sterile surface testing.

Main Function

The main purpose of the sterile surface swab sampling tube is to provide a safe and contamination-free environment for collecting and preserving surface samples. It plays an essential role in infection control, cleaning and disinfection evaluation, and antimicrobial agent performance testing. By preventing contamination during collection and transport, it helps ensure the accuracy and reliability of laboratory results.

How to Use

1. Open the package carefully and remove the seal while maintaining sterility.

2. Before sampling, wipe the target surface with a 75% alcohol swab.

3. Use the sterile swab to collect samples from the desired area, then insert the swab into the sampling tube, rotate, and remove it.

4. Tighten the cap to prevent air bubbles.

5. Place the tube on a sterile workbench for nucleic acid detection or other laboratory analysis.

All operations should be performed under sterile conditions to avoid external contamination that may affect test results.

Precautions

- Use the sampling tube at a suitable temperature.

- Avoid touching the swab head or the inner wall of the tube with your hands.

- Ensure the sampling area remains sterile; seal and label the sample immediately after collection.

- Send samples for testing as soon as possible to ensure reliable and valid data.

Conclusion and Recommendation

Thanks to its high efficiency, safety, and ease of use, the sterile surface swab sampling tube has become an essential tool in medical and laboratory testing.
