The unique shatterproof tube design enhances performance and eliminates undesirable bubbles, breaking in the deep agar gel column, ensuring optimal specimen collection.

With a variety of applicator and swab materials, media types, tip sizes, and packaging options, Transystem™ swabs offer unparalleled versatility and convenience for efficient bacteriology.

Innovative Venturi Hourglass Tube Design

The Venturi unique “hourglass” design eliminates air pockets – harmful to anaerobe bacteria – preventing dehydration and breakdown of the gel column.

State-of-the-Art Recyclable VI-PACK Packaging

The VI-PAK metallic foil and plastic film barrier block oxygen entry, preventing unwanted oxidation of the transport medium.

Liquid Media Transport Swabs

Large polyurethane sponges sustain direct swab contact in liquid Amies or Stuart media, preventing desiccation for fully preserved aerobic cultures, rapid antigen, and molecular assay samples.
