Collection Instructions

Nasopharyngeal (NP) Specimen Specimen Required: Nasopharyngeal swab or                                   ESwab Container/Tube: UTM or VTM M4, Collection Instructions: 1.Collect specimen using a flexible shaft nasopharyngeal swab (i.e., Flocked, Rayon and Polyester). 2. Gently slide swab along floor of nose with very light pressure to nasopharyngeal wall to allow the swab to absorb secretions. 3. Rotate swab slowly two to three times and withdraw it. 4. Place the swab into an approved transport medium (UTM, M4 or equivalent), close tightly. 5. Label tube with patient’s name (first and last), date and time of collection, and specimen type. 6. Maintain sterility and forward promptly. Transport Temperature: Refrigerated Specimen can be stored at 2°C to 8°C for up to 7 days.
