McKesson Sterile and Non-Sterile Cotton-Tipped Applicators Overview
The McKesson Cotton-Tipped Applicators Sterile (McKesson 24-106-2S) and McKesson 6-Inch Cotton-Tipped Non-Sterile Applicators (McKesson 24-106) are versatile products for both home and hospital use. The cotton tips of these swabs are absorbent for easy collection of wound cleansers, bacterial specimens, and other liquids. Their shafts are made out of wood, which makes them biodegradable and more environmentally friendly than their plastic counterparts. Wood shafts also make these items easier to grip than plastic swabs. No part of these swabs is made with latex, so they are safe for patients and at-home users with latex sensitivities.
McKesson Cotton-Tipped Applicators come with two swabs and their packaging includes a convenient ruler so healthcare professionals can measure the application site if necessary. These swabs have either 3- or 6-inch wood shafts and come in both sterile and non-sterile versions. The 6-inch option makes obtaining nose or throat specimens easier and allows caretakers to keep a wider distance between themselves and their patients' wounds and cavities. Several quantity options are also available for convenience.
Multi-Use Applications
These home and professional medical tools have many uses. For instance, in medical settings, they might be used in tandem with wound-cleaning solutions to cleanse wounds or apply medical ointments. The sterile versions might also be used to swab noses or mouths to obtain bacterial specimens for diagnostic tests. In homes, they might be used for more basic purposes, such as makeup application or removal or the cleaning of tight spaces in appliances, such as keyboards. They might also be added to home first aid kits for small abrasion cleansing or ointment application.
