ESwab™

Collect, snap and elute with ESwab; that is all it takes to simplify and streamline specimen collection. In the testing laboratory, the ESwab cap is unscrewed and removed, and the swab applicator stick is securely attached to the cap. This allows the operator to conveniently remove the swab and perform various microbiology analyses, using the tube cap as a handle to hold and manipulate the swab.
