CAVSWAB™-1

The MedSchenker® CavSwab™ with Allium™ flock technology has been engineered with a precision scalloped surface to produce ‘cavums.’ This design creates a greater surface area to absorb and help collect larger amounts of specimen. Allium™ flock technology refers to the unique ability of our nylon fibers to adapt to the direction the swab is being pushed/pulled, resulting in less friction and an overall more pleasant experience for both the medical professional and the patient. The notched shaft of our 153mm Nasopharyngeal CavSwab™ with a 101.3mm breakpoint, increases grip and dexterity while also reducing the amount of stress on the practitioner. More and more laboratories and medical institutions around the world are now enjoying the benefits of a more reliable swab. The reproducibility of the target analyte collection, enhanced flow dynamics and assay sensitivity make the MedSchenker® CavSwab™ the best choice for your testing needs.
