Präzise Einblicke in Gesundheit und Krankheit durch gezielte Probenentnahme und Labordiagnostik

Precise insights into health and disease through targeted sampling and laboratory diagnostics

Swabs are a widely used diagnostic method in which samples are taken from various body surfaces or fluids using specialised swabs or brushes, particularly from areas such as the throat, nose, genital area or other relevant parts of the body. After collection, the swab samples undergo laboratory diagnostics that enable detailed identification of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses or fungi that are potentially responsible for infections. In addition, smears are used for cytological examination to detect changes in cell structures, which makes a decisive contribution to the early detection of cancer. The precise analysis of swab samples thus plays a key role in the early identification of infections and cellular changes, enabling comprehensive and preventive healthcare.
