SecurSwab S.I.T Collector

The kit’s components provide the user with the most secure and effective swab collection system available by using the Bode SecurSwab SIT Collector. The SecurSwab SIT Collector is uniquely designed to include an integrated desiccant, which dries samples during transport and eliminates the need to air-dry most samples. The SecurSwab also includes 4 unique, matching barcode labels that can easily be applied to the collector packaging or documentation to ensure chain of custody control. The cotton tip is a proven collection material for many types of samples. Each collector is individually wrapped in foil to take up minimal space and protect the collector so that it is always ready for use.
