  • 1ml modified Liquid Amies with unique Nylon flocked swab. Maintains viability of Aerobes, Anaerobes and Fastidious Bacteria for up to 48 hrs at room temperature and refrigerator temperature.*
  • Sample rapidly and completely elutes from the flocked swab as soon as it is placed in the transport medium.
