Use the small, blue shafted collection swab provided with the Unisex collection kit, NOT the larger white shafted cleansing swab.
Carefully insert the swab approximately 1- 2 inches (3-5 cm) past the anal margin (the outside of the anus) and gently rotate swab against the rectal wall for 5 - 10 seconds.. Withdraw the swab carefully without touching your skin.
Remove the cap from the swab specimen transport tube and immediately place the specimen collection swab into the transport tube. Carefully break the swab shaft at the score-line; use care to avoid splashing of the contents. Recap the swab specimen transfer tube tightly, label and ship to the lab
