Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021236011A1] Described is a swab. The swab includes a rod having a longitudinal axis and a tip. The tip includes a proximal region at a distal end of the rod, a distal region opposite the proximal region, a plurality of posts extending from the proximal region to the distal region, and a plurality of circumferential supports, each support extending between two said posts. The posts and circumferential supports form a frame that resists plastic deformation of the tip due to forces applied laterally at the tip.
