BD Flexible Minitip Flocked Swab (item# 220252) is a sterile, single-use collection swab designed for high-quality sampling when small anatomy or targeted sites require a mini-tip. Clinicians use it in clinics, emergency departments, drive-through test sites, and labs to collect respiratory and other microbiology specimens for culture or molecular testing. Perpendicular nylon flocking maximizes contact with the collection site and then releases the sample rapidly into transport media, helping labs capture more cells for accurate PCR and antigen results. A flexible shaft and molded breakpoint let you load the swab into a transport tube without touching the tip, supporting clean, efficient workflow.
