Lyophilized Control Swabs for Diagnostic Testing
Quality Control Redefined
Providing reliable quality control materials with your diagnostic tests shouldn't require complex cold chain logistics or compromise performance. Our lyophilized control swabs deliver room-temperature stability and consistent dissolution characteristics.
The Science Behind Control Swabs
Quality control without compromise: Stable, reproducible, precise.
Control swabs represent a sophisticated approach to quality control for diagnostic tests that utilize swabs for obtaining a patient sample (nasal, throat, tongue).
We carefully prepare and stabilize a range of control materials to match diverse testing requirements:
- For antigen and molecular tests, we utilize complete, heat-inactivated organisms as antigenic targets while being completely safe to handle
- For molecular tests, we can precisely isolate and prepare specific genetic material (DNA/mRNA) your system needs to detect
- For specialized tests, we can provide specific viral or bacterial target proteins (for example SARS-CoV-2 spike or Nucleocapsid protein)
- For multiplexed assays, we offer customized combinations of control materials
Quality Meets Experience
Our ISO 13485 certified manufacturing facility has decades of expertise in control material preparation. From initial material preparation to final packaging, every step follows rigorously documented procedures that ensure every control swab meets high standards for your testing program.
This material is then freeze-dried directly onto medical-grade assay swabs using our specialized lyophilization process.
When introduced to your testing system, these controls dissolve rapidly and completely in your device's buffer, behaving like a clinical sample.
This provides verification of your testing device performance and procedural accuracy.
