Profile: Copan Diagnostics Inc. is a supplier of bacteriology swabs, viral transport media VTM) and molecular systems. We are accredited with ISO 9001:2000 certification. We have an extensive line of laboratory consumables, including inoculation loops & needles, spreaders, & transfer pipettes, as well as a line of environmental swab systems and a line for forensic applications. Our flocked swabs have no internal mattress core to disperse and entrap the precious sample like traditional fiber wound swabs. It has perpendicular nylon fibers that act like a soft brush and allow improved collection of cell samples. The capillary action between the nylon fiber strands facilitates strong hydraulic uptake of liquid samples. The entire sample stays close to the surface for fast and complete elution. Our universal transport medium is available as filled tubes in bulk or a variety of patient sample collection packs incorporating various combinations of swabs and media tubes. It can be conveniently stored at room temperature prior to use for collecting samples for all four organism groups namely viruses, chlamydia, mycoplasma and ureaplasma.

• Aerobic Transport System (FDA Code: JTW / 866.2900)

A microbiological specimen collection and transport device is a specimen collecting chamber intended for medical purposes to preserve the viability or integrity of microorganisms in specimens during storage of specimens after their collection and during their transport from the collecting area to the laboratory. The device may be labeled or otherwise represented as sterile. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms.

• Anaerobic Transport Culture Media (FDA Code: JSL / 866.2390)

A transport culture medium is a device that consists of a semisolid, usually non-nutrient, medium that maintains the viability of suspected pathogens contained in patient specimens while in transit from the specimen collection area to the laboratory. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms and also provides epidemiological information on these diseases.

• Anaerobic Transport System (FDA Code: JTX / 866.2900)

• Culture Media Quality Control Kit (FDA Code: JTR / 866.2480)

A quality control kit for culture media is a device that consists of paper discs (or other suitable materials), each impregnated with a specified, freeze-dried, viable microorganism, intended for medical purposes to determine if a given culture medium is able to support the growth of that microorganism. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms and also provides epidemiological information on these diseases.

• Culture Media Supplements (FDA Code: JSK / 866.2450)

A supplement for culture media is a device, such as a vitamin or sugar mixture, that is added to a solid or liquid basal culture medium to produce a desired formulation and that is intended for medical purposes to enhance the growth of fastidious microorganisms (those having complex nutritional requirements). This device aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms.

• Quality Control Kits (FDA Code: JTR / 866.2480)

• Sterile Absorbent Tipped Applicator (FDA Code: KXG / 880.6025)

• Sterile Specimen Container (FDA Code: FMH / 864.3250)

A specimen transport and storage container, which may be empty or prefilled, is a device intended to contain biological specimens, body waste, or body exudate during storage and transport in order that the matter contained therein can be destroyed or used effectively for diagnostic examination. If prefilled, the device contains a fixative solution or other general purpose reagent to preserve the condition of a biological specimen added to the container. This section does not apply to specimen transport and storage containers that are intended for use as part of an over-the-counter test sample collection system for drugs of abuse testing.

• Sterile Specimen Mailer and Storage Container (FDA Code: KDT / 864.3250)
