Simplify fungal specimen collection and transport with the MycoPak® Dermatophyte Collection Kit by Innovatek Medical Inc. Designed specifically for healthcare providers and diagnostic laboratories, this all-in-one system enables clean, reliable collection and secure mail-in transport of superficial mycology samples, including skin scrapings, hair, and nail clippings.
Each kit features pre-folded black specimen paper that provides visual contrast for small sample particles while preventing specimen loss. Engineered for laboratory safety, the paper holds fragile fragments securely in place even when opened inside a biosafety laminar flow cabinet, minimizing contamination and sample dispersion.
