Specimen Collection Guide
– Nasal Swabs
An anterior nasal swab sample can be collected by a medical professional or by
an individual performing a self-swab.
Specimen collection, on children under 12 years of age, should be performed by
a medical professional. Children aged 12 to 17 should be under adult
supervision if they
perform the anterior nasal swab by themselves. Adults aged 18 and over can
perform the anterior nasal swab by themselves. Please follow your local
guidelines for specimen collection by children.
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL COLLECTION
SELF COLLECTION
How to collect an anterior nasal swab sample:
1. Carefully insert one of the Disposable Nasal Swabs, provided with your kit, into one nostril. Using gentle rotation, push the swab less than 2.5 cm (1 inch) from the edge of the nostril. 2. Rotate the swab 5 times against the mucosa inside the nostril to ensure sufficient specimen collection.
3. Using the same swab, repeat the process in the other nostril to ensure that an adequate amount of sample is collected from both nasal cavities.
4. Withdraw the swab from the nasal cavity. The specimen is now ready for preparation using the extraction buffer tubes.
Specimen Collection Guide – Nasopharyngeal Swabs
How to collect a nasopharyngeal swab sample:
- Tilt patient’s head back 70 degrees. Gently and slowly insert a nasopharyngeal swab, provided with your kit, through the nostril parallel to the palate until resistance is encountered.
- Gently rub and roll the swab, leaving it in place for several seconds to absorb secretions. If a deviated septum or blockage creates difficulty in obtaining the specimen from one nostril, use the same swab to obtain the specimen from the other nostril.
- Slowly remove the swab while rotating it. The specimen is now ready for preparation using the extraction buffer tubes.
