Amies Transport Medium Swab (100 Pack) – Sterile, Individually Packed
Ensure optimal specimen preservation with our high-quality Amies transport medium swabs. This 100-pack of sterile, individually packaged swabs is designed for the efficient collection, transport, and storage of biological samples. Our charcoal-free Amies formula, a modification of Stuart’s transport medium, replaces glycerophosphate with inorganic phosphate to prevent metabolic interference from certain enterobacteriaceae (e.g., Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae). This ensures the viability of a wide range of microorganisms, including:
- Neisseria spp.
- Haemophilus spp.
- Corynebacteria
- Streptococcus pneumoniae
- Escherichia coli
- Klebsiella pneumoniae
The addition of calcium and magnesium further supports bacterial cell membrane integrity. Each 13 x 150 ±5 mm tube is clearly labelled with the batch number, sterilization date, expiry date, manufacturer, distributor, and registration details. A patient/sample information section is also included. A tamper-evident label, securely attached to the cap, guarantees the integrity of the sample. Choose reliability and accuracy for your microbiology needs. Manufactured in Ningbo.
