Oropharyngeal swab collection kits with saline solution

The NEST Disposable Oropharyngeal Saline Solution Sampler kits from Wuxi Nest Biotechnology are high quality, yet affordable kits for the collection of oropharyngeal swab samples for COVID-19 testing.

Containing a non-toxic 0.85% saline solution, samples can be collected, transported and stored at room temperature. These kits have been validated for their ability to detect 2x limit of detection (low positives) and 10x limit of detection (high positives) samples by RT-PCR. Samples collected in this saline solution should be processed within 48 hours of collection 

Swab & tube specifications

The sterile oropharyngeal swab provided features a flocked tip with a breakpoint at 80 mm and 32 mm from the tip, compatible with the tubes provided.
