New technique to take samples from environmental surfaces using flocked nylon swabs.
Environmental surfaces near infected and/or colonised patients in hospitals are commonly contaminated with potentially pathogenic micro-organisms. At present, however, there is no standardised method for taking samples from surfaces in order to perform quantitative cultures. Usually contact plates or swabs are used, but these methods may give different results. The recovery rate of traditional ...
متن کاملA comparison of dacron versus Flocked nylon swabs for anal cytology specimen collection.
OBJECTIVES We compared the performance of commonly used Dacron versus flocked nylon swabs for anal cytology. STUDY DESIGN From 23 HIV-positive men screened at Kaiser Permanente San Francisco (San Francisco, Calif., USA), 2 anal specimens were collected, 1 with each swab in random order, and placed into liquid cytology medium. Specimens were tested for cellularity by quantifying a genomic DNA ...
متن کاملEffects of saliva collection using cotton swabs on melatonin enzyme immunoassay
BACKGROUND Although various acceptable and easy-to-use devices have been used for saliva collection, cotton swabs are among the most common ones. Previous studies reported that cotton swabs yield a lower level of melatonin detection. However, this statistical method is not adequate for detecting an agreement between cotton saliva collection and passive saliva collection, and a test for bias is ...
متن کاملBuccal DNA collection: comparison of buccal swabs with FTA cards.
Collection and analysis of DNA, most commonly from blood or buccal cells, is becoming more common in epidemiologic studies. Buccal samples, which are painless to take and relatively easily collected, are often the preferred source. There are several buccal cell collection methods: swabs, brushes, mouthwash, and treated cards, such as FTA or IsoCode cards. Few studies have systematically compare...
متن کاملMycoplasma hyopneumoniae detection in nylon-flocked and rayon-bud swabs.
The objective of this study was to compare the absorption and M. hyopneumoniae detection by real-time PCR using nylon-flocked and rayon-bud swabs. Results of this study showed that absorption and detection of M. hyopneumoniae were significantly higher in nylon-flocked swabs with Ct differences only ranging from 0.5 to 1.7.
