Description

The SPECIMEN COLLECTION SYSTEM LIQUID STUARTS SINGLE SWAB is a sterile device designed for the collection and transport of aerobic microbial specimens. Constructed with a plastic shaft and a soft rayon swab tip, it provides reliable sample acquisition from multiple anatomical sites, including throat, vaginal, skin, and wound surfaces. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratories, point-of-care settings, and diagnostic facilities, supporting efficient microbial analysis and accurate culture results.

The swab is paired with Liquid Stuart Medium, a non-nutritive transport formulation buffered with phosphate and supplemented with sodium thioglycollate to create a reduced environment. This composition preserves the viability of collected organisms during transport without promoting overgrowth, maintaining the integrity of the specimen until processing.

The system features a double-action security cap, ensuring secure closure and minimizing the risk of leakage or contamination during handling and transport. Its translucent tube with a white cap allows visual inspection of the swab and medium, while the 5-1/4-inch length provides adequate reach and maneuverability for specimen collection.
