Abstract

ABSTRACT Flocked swabs (Copan) were compared to rayon swabs (Copan) for the nasal detection of Staphylococcus aureus in 90 healthy volunteers sampled sequentially during a 5-week period. The use of flocked swabs improved the number of nasal carriers ( P = 0.026), the number of positive specimens ( P = 0.01), and the quantity of bacteria in positive samples ( P = 0.004).
