About Urethral Swab Culture and Sensitivity
Urethral Swab Culture and Sensitivity is a targeted microbiology laboratory test that measures or evaluates Urethral Swab Culture and Sensitivity in the submitted patient specimen to support genital infection. The result is primarily used for genital infection and can provide objective laboratory evidence for clinical assessment or follow-up. A properly collected urethral swab specimen is analysed using Culture + AST, with the reported value or finding interpreted against the laboratory's validated procedure and applicable reference information. Results should be interpreted in clinical context and should not be used in isolation to start, stop or change treatment without an appropriate healthcare professional.
Sample & Submission Guide
How to package the sample
Collect the respiratory or site-specific swab using the sterile collection kit recommended for the assay and immediately place the swab into the appropriate viral, bacterial or molecular transport medium. Tighten the tube securely, label the collection site and time, and place it upright in a sealed biohazard bag. Maintain 2–8°C during short transport unless the kit or receiving laboratory specifies another condition, and avoid repeated opening, leakage or freeze-thaw cycles. For Urethral Swab Culture and Sensitivity, use packaging and preservation compatible with Culture + AST; if the receiving laboratory supplies a dedicated collection kit, bottle or transport medium, that kit takes precedence over general packaging guidance.
