The ARX Liquid Amies Collection & Transport System (ARX) is intended for use in the collection of clinical specimens (i.e., nasal secretion/wash; lachrymal secretion/tears; auricular secretion/cerumen; urethral, rectal, or vaginal swab; wound/abscess material) potentially containing aerobic, and fastidious bacteria and their transport at 2-8°C or 25-30°C from the patient to the laboratory for bacteriological examination and culture. In the laboratory, the collected and transported clinical specimens of nasal, lachrymal, ceruminous, vaginal, urethral, rectal, and wound/abscess origin are processed using standard clinical laboratory operating procedures for bacterial culture.

The ARX Liquid Amies Collection & Transport System consists of a polypropylene screw-cap vial containing Liquid Amies transport medium and three (3) sterile peel-open pouches containing a pre-scored Microbrush nylon flocked swab for collecting specimens. The three (3) nylon flocked swabs are provided with various score points, tip sizes, and configurations to facilitate specimen collection from various sites on patients' bodies. Nylon flocked swabs facilitate quick absorption and release of clinical specimens. Proper specimen collection from the patient is critical for successful isolation and identification of infectious organisms. Amies liquid medium is a non-nutritive balanced salt solution containing inorganic phosphates to provide buffering capability, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and magnesium chloride to provide essential ions that help maintain osmotic balance and control permeability of bacterial cells. It also contains sodium thioglycolate to provide a reduced environment. ARX Liquid Amies transport medium is capable of maintaining the viability of aerobic, anaerobic, and fastidious bacteria (such as Neisseria gonorrhoeae) during specimen transport to the laboratory for bacteriological testing and culture. All raw materials used in the manufacture of ARX Liquid Amies Collection & Transport System are qualified before use. Every batch of ARX Liquid Amies Collection & Transport System is tested prior to release for sterility, pH, and background count using microscopic examination. Representative samples of each batch are further evaluated for their ability to maintain the viability of selected bacterial agents over predefined time periods.

Puritan® Amies Medium Collection and Transport System is intended for use in the collection and transport of clinical specimens containing aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious bacteria from the patient to the laboratory for bacteriological examination and culture.

Puritan Amies Medium Collection and Transport System is comprised of a sterile peel pouch containing a rayon tipped swab applicator for collecting specimen and a polypropylene tube containing 4 ml of Amies medium with or without charcoal. The rayon tipped swab applicators are provided in different tip sizes to accommodate various specimen types. Amies medium is a nonnutritive balanced salt solution containing inorganic phosphates to provide buffering capability, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride and magnesium chloride to provide essential ions that help maintain osmotic balance. Agar is a solidifying agent and gives a semi-solid texture to the medium. Sodium thioglycollate provides a reduced environment. It is recommended for maintaining the viability of aerobic and fastidious bacteria during the transport to the laboratory.

Puritan Liquid Amies Collection and Transport System is intended for use in the collection and transport of clinical specimens containing aerobic and fastidious bacteria from the patient to the laboratory for bacteriological examination and culture.

Puritan Liquid Amies Collection and Transport System is comprised of a sterile peel pouch containing a polyester flock swab applicator for collecting specimen and a polypropylene vial containing 1 ml of modified Amies liquid transport medium. The polyester flock swab applicators are provided in two different tip sizes to accommodate various specimen types. Amies liquid medium is a nonnutritive balanced salt solution containing inorganic phosphates to provide buffering capability, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride and magnesium chloride to provide essential ions that help maintain osmotic balance. Sodium thioglycollate provides a reduced environment. It is recommended for maintaining the viability of aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious bacteria during the transport to the laboratory.

Medical Wire & Equipment Virocult® Virus Collection and Transport System is intended to preserve the viability and infectivity of viral specimens for viral culture after their collection and during transport from the collection site to the testing laboratory. Virocult specimens are processed using standard clinical laboratory operating procedures for viral and cell culture.

Each Virocult® device comprises a sterile peel pouch containing a rayon- tipped swab used to collect the sample and a tube containing an open cell polyurethane pad soaked with Virocult® virus transport medium. After sampling, the swab applicator is placed inside the tube, where the bud is bathed with the liquid from the foam pad. Virocult® medium consists of a phosphate-buffered balanced salt solution, glucose, lactalbumin hydrolysate to stabilise the virus particles, and antibiotics to inhibit the growth of other microorganisms that may be present in the clinical specimen. The rayon- tipped swab will suit most general applications such as mouth, nose, throat and skin. To use Virocult®, the sterile peel pouch is opened, and the cap removed from the transport tube. The applicator swab is removed from the pouch and used to collect the clinical specimen. During specimen collection, the applicator should only fouch the area where the infection is suspected.
