Buccal Cell Collection


Please read all instructions prior to sample collection.

Use the buccal swab to gently "scrub" the inside of each cheek and place it back in the collection tube. Seal the tube and place the sealed swab tube in the Lab Guard specimen bag.

  • Do not eat, drink, or smoke anything 30 minutes prior to buccal swab collection.
  • PLEASE do not touch the tip of the swab to anything but the inside of your cheek.
  • This process must be witnessed by a care provider or an individual other than the patient via video chat or in person.
  1. Remove the buccal swab from the swab tube, leaving the swab tube uncapped.
  2. Rub swab gently against the inside of your cheek from the top gum line to the bottom gum line in a rotating motion.
    • Repeat motion up to 5 times.
    • Make sure to cover a large area of the cheek to ensure sufficient sample collection (do not rub the same area repeatedly).
  3. Immediately place the swab back into the swab tube and securely replace the cap.
  4. Write initials and date of collection on all tubes.
  5. Put the swab tube in the Lab Guard specimen bag; do not seal. Vacutainer tubes will be shipped in the same Lab Guard specimen bag.
  6. Refer to Return Instruction for sending tubes for processing.
The swab tube is only required to be sent at the time of the initial test.
