Taking swabs from high and difficult-to-reach places is a consistent problem. The TeleSwab with its extendable handle overcomes these problems and allows operators to quickly and easily take swabs from previously inaccessible places. Ideal for environmental swabbing and use with large items of processing equipment, the sampler comes complete with an extendable handle that can be extended to the correct length for easy swabbing. An adjustable adapter allows the swabs etc. to be angled to meet the contours of the item being sampled.
The TeleSwab is ideal for swabbing difficult-to-reach locations. If one is sampling a dry surface, it is recommended that a wet or moistened swab is used. The swab test method has proved to be a popular testing method with flood damage insurance claims, where there may be sewage contamination. If swab samples are collected for culture analysis, they should be sent to the laboratory within 24 hours after collection. If the analysis of the swab samples involves enumeration of the microbial contaminants, the size of the area sampled should be provided to the lab.
An optional mirror attachment with sizes of plastic mirrors (3” x 3” and 6” x 6”) and a flashlight attachment are also available.
