Med Vet International Culture Swabs, 2.6mm x 250cm, J0726D, Each
Getting a culture or cytology sample from the equine guttural pouch is a real challenge. The conventional swabs do not have the proper angulation for entry into the guttural pouch.This 22" culture swab is bent to about a 30° angle. After the sample is obtained, it can be removed with the outer sheathstill in the guttural pouch. Then medication can be infused if found necessary. The swab is covered by a methylcelluloseplug prior to entry and to avoid contamination. 5/pk. (not pictured)
