Salimetrics Children's Swab (SCS)
Our safe and effective long swab is designed for the collection of saliva from children under the age of six. It features a thin diameter (8mm) to suit smaller mouths, and the durable polymer withstands chewing. The SCS is long enough to allow one end of the swab to be held while it is in the child’s mouth, eliminating any choking hazard. The taste and texture of the SCS are acceptable to children, and the volume of sample recovered is typically in the range of 200-1000 µL.
The SCS has the same freedom from interference and verified recoveries as our regular Salimetrics Oral Swab (SOS). Samples collected using the SCS can be tested for cortisol, cotinine, testosterone, SIgA, alpha-amylase, CRP and chromogranin A.
