Primarily used in equine veterinary medicine to diagnose uterine infections (endometritis) in mares by collecting a sample of endometrial tissue.
The swab has a long, slender handle with a cotton tip covered by two protective sheaths (inner and outer guard).
During the procedure, the outer guard is retracted to expose the inner guard, which is then used to collect the sample from the uterus.
Once the sample is collected, the inner guard is retracted back into the outer guard, preventing contamination during withdrawal.
