abf Crime Scene Swabs

abf Crime Scene Swabs have specifically been developed to collect DNA containing residues for forensic, hygienic or medical purposes. The new, innovative swab design minimizes the risk of accidental contamination and allows applying more pressure during wiping. Therefore the risk of breaking of the swab head during wiping is reduced and the efficiency of the collection process increased.

All abf swabs are free of human DNA. They are assembled under stringent purity conditions and sterilized with Ethylene Oxide (EtO). DNA freedom is controlled with qPCR in accordance with our internal standard operating procedures.
