SELF-CONTAINED SWAB UNIT ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A self-contained swab unit comprises a cylindrical plastic tube having a foam rubber swab capping one end. The tube is closed at the opposite end by a heating and crimping process. A cleansing or sterilizing solution is loaded into the tube. The tube is sealed by a generally conical plug having a base slightly lar- ger than the inside diameter of the cyl- inder, so that the solution is sealed away from the foam rubber swab when not in use. Squeezing the tube causes the plug to pivot in relation to the side- walls of the tube so that the seal is broken and liquid may saturate the swab. Releasing the squeeze pressure on the tube causes the plugs to pivot back into a partial seal so that the amount of fluid used in swabbing can be controlled. ?381-5
