If you're standardizing your collection workflow or restocking a lab, Honest Medical carries the sterile ESwab kits laboratories rely on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo configurations are stocked here, both built around the same core chemistry. The \u003cstrong\u003eESwab 480C\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs a plastic shaft\/nylon flocked swab with a 1 mL vial of liquid Amies, while the \u003cstrong\u003eESwab 220245\u003c\/strong\u003e adds a secure screw cap closure to the same 1 mL liquid Amies medium — a detail that matters when specimens travel between a collection site and an off-premises lab. Both are individually sterile-packaged and ready for immediate use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes flocked swabs different from conventional wound or spun-fiber swabs? Instead of trapping cells deep in a fiber matrix, the perpendicular nylon fibers hold the specimen close to the surface, so nearly the entire sample elutes into the medium. That improves recovery for culture, and because the liquid Amies is compatible with automated processing and many molecular and antigen assays, one collection can often serve multiple downstream tests. Room-temperature transport typically preserves organism viability for around 48 hours, though your lab's validated protocols should always govern handling times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering, confirm the volume (1 mL is standard for these units), the closure type your lab prefers, and case quantities against your specimen throughput. Screw-cap versions like the 220245 are a common choice where leak resistance during shipping is a priority; the 480C is a straightforward pick for on-site collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeed help matching the right ESwab configuration to your testing platform or ordering in bulk for a facility?
