Puritans new dry transport system securely holds a swab in a round bottom tube made from virgin polypropylene resin, creating a safe and sterile environment to accommodate many different styles of collection devices. The injection-molded cap assures a precision fit for multiple handle styles, eliminating any foreign adhesive that may interfere with the specimen. Tubes include a distinctive label that describes product identity and expiry date as well as allowing for patient identification and collection information.
