Overview

The BD ESwab™ collection and transport system helps collect clinical specimens containing aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious bacteria from the collection site, and transport them to the testing laboratory. In the lab, BD ESwab™ specimens are processed using standard clinical lab operating procedures for bacterial culture. The unique design of the flocked swab ensures optimal elution of the specimen into the transport medium.
