DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE
ABSORBENT BULB FOR INSTANT RELEASE
The porous microstructure of the bulb is tuned to collect and retain fluids while allowing quick release into a vial. The strong capillary hydraulics between the fibers of OPT’s GM polymer increases maximum fluid sample uptake and rapid release. Lab results show that InstaSwab™ has a higher liquid/solid separation rate than conventional cotton swabs, and a higher microbial transfer efficiency than market leading flocked swabs.
FLEXIBLE SHAFT
Soft and bendable where the swab is inserted in the nasal cavity. Rigid and strong at the handle where it is held.
TEXTURED GRIP
Patterned handle prevents slipping when wearing gloves and working with wet surfaces.
FDA COMPLIANT
Trusted by Kaiser Permanente, Henry Schein and other leading healthcare providers, OPT’s InstaSwab™ is an FDA-registered (#3016659563), Class I, 510(k) exempt device produced following good manufacturing practices (GMP).
STERILE PACKAGING
Each swab is individually packaged in a sealed airtight pouch and EO sterilized before shipping.
