4N6FLOQSwabs Buccal Lollipops, single-sided, have a solid molded plastic applicator shaft with a round-shaped tip to improve collection of buccal cells from the inside of a subject’s check. One side of the tip of the 4N6FLOQSwabs Buccal Lollipop are coated with short Nylon fibers arranged in a perpendicular fashion to create a highly absorbent thin layer with an open structure. Collection of cellular material on one side of the lollipop allows for increased transfer efficiency of the sample. The perpendicular Nylon fibers act like a soft brush that facilitates improved collection of cellular material. Capillary action between the fiber strands facilitates strong hydraulic uptake of liquid sample, and the sample stays close to the surface for easy elution.
Key features:
• Certified free of DNase, RNase, and amplifiable human DNA
• Rapid absorption capability and superior sample release
• Single sided lollipop for buccal cell collection
• Individually packaged in a convenient peel pouch format
4N6FLOQSwabs Buccal Lollipops are manufactured by Copan, a market leader in the area of sample collection tools, and distributed globally by Thermo Fisher Scientific.
