Features

Extended Room Temperature Stability

4N6FLOQSwabs® Crime Scene preserve human DNA for up to six months at room temperature and for up to seven days at temperatures as high as 37°C.

Optimized 20mm Breakpoint

With a shortened 20mm breakpoint, 4N6FLOQSwabs® conveniently snap into cuvette-tubes for simplified collection, closing and shipping of forensic specimens.

Validated ISO-Compliant Performance

To ensure the highest level of accuracy, 4N6FLOQSwabs® flocked swabs are in full compliance with ISO 18385:2016, verified Nuclease-Free and Human DNA-Free.

Antimicrobial Coating

An antimicrobial coating prevents degradation and outside contamination during evidence transfer. By neutralizing environmental microbes, the antimicrobial layer preserves DNA integrity for reliable identifications.

Antimicrobial Protection for Pristine DNA

4N6FLOQSwabs™ Crime Scene feature an antimicrobial coating that preserves DNA integrity while neutralizing environmental microbes. This allows clean collection/transfer without drying agents that risk contamination. By guarding against degradation, antimicrobial action produces purer samples and more reliable identifications.

Optimal Recovery from Limited Sources

With superior sample release, 4N6FLOQSwabs® outperform traditional swabs for gathering scarce or challenging specimens. Anatomical nylon tips access tight spaces to collect low DNA count samples from sublingual surfaces, bottles and other difficult sources.

Superior DNA Collection

COPAN's innovative 4N6FLOQSwabs® represent the future of crime scene DNA gathering. Unlike traditional swabs, the solid core and outer Nylon® flocking eliminate sample entrapment while enabling rapid, complete uptake and elution of specimens for markedly improved assay sensitivity.

Verified Nuclease-Free and Human DNA-Free

To ensure utmost accuracy, 4N6FLOQSwabs® undergo rigorous certification testing and manufacturing precautions to verify the products are free from detectable DNase, RNase and human DNA contamination. COPAN maintains an anonymous database of all production staff and tests raw materials and finished products for human DNA. Restricted forensic production areas and EO sterilization further safeguard purity. With inhibitory-free materials and stringent ISO 18385:2016 compliance, 4N6FLOQSwabs® deliver PCR-ready performance.
