Unit Dose Swabs

James Alexander's unit dose swab package offers an economical, convenient delivery system with wide applications for topical medicinal and non-drug products.

Swab Components
JAC's unit dose swab consists of a hermetically sealed glass ampoule or ampoules, a flexible plastic sleeve, an absorbent applicator tip, and a paper cap that serves both for protection and product identification. JAC swabs come in three standard sizes to meet varied packaging and fill volume requirements.

Ampoule- The ampoule composition may be either USP type III soda lime glass or USP type I borosilicate glass.
Flexible Plastic Sleeve- The flexible outer sleeve is butyrate plastic.
Applicator Tip- The applicator tip is available in polyester, porous polyethylene or a laminated polyester foam tip.
Paper Cap- The paper cap can be located over the absorbent tip or sealed in place with the tip exposed. The cap can be printed in a variety of colors.

Directions For Use
Reverse cardboard sleeve on swab. Crush ONCE between the thumb and forefinger at the dot located at the center of the swab. Gently squeeze swab to apply to the desired area. To avoid glass splinters, use only with paper cap completely in place.

Packaging Variations Available

One of the ampoules may contain a powder.
A porous polyethylene disk can be located under the applicator tip, which allows for the removal of the saturated tip for application to various surfaces.
JAC swabs can be manufactured in custom sizes and configurations.
Blister packaging also available.
