Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which transport medium should I use for anaerobic cultures?
A: For anaerobic cultures, the HPS x CMP ANAEROBIC TRANSCULTSWAB or efSwab-Cary and Blair Broth variants are recommended. Both maintain anaerobic conditions and are nitrogen-flushed for extended stability.
Q: What is the advantage of nylon-flock swabs over rayon swabs?
A: Nylon-flock swabs have a perpendicular fibre arrangement that dramatically increases the surface area for specimen uptake and release. Compared to rayon swabs, flocked swabs absorb more material, release a higher percentage of the specimen into transport medium, and reduce specimen loss — resulting in better sensitivity for downstream culture and molecular assays.
Q: How long can specimens be stored in efSwab transport media before testing?
A: Storage stability depends on the specific medium and target organism. In general, efSwab-Amies maintains aerobic bacterial viability for up to 48–72 hours at room temperature or refrigerated. For specimens intended for molecular assays (PCR), extended storage is feasible with appropriate temperature control. Always refer to the product-specific Certificate of Analysis and your laboratory’s SOPs for validated hold times.
