Product Details
About Cue Sample Wands
Designed for use with the Cue COVID-19 test and Cue Reader, the sterile, individually wrapped Sample Wands are used for easy specimen collection. These replacement Sample Wands are intended as supplements in the event that existing Sample Wands are rendered unusable or contaminated (e.g. Sample Wand is dropped on floor).
How to use Cue Sample Wands
The Cue Sample Wand must be used with the Cue COVID-19 test and Cue Reader. To collect a direct nasal swab sample, swab both nostrils with the same Cue Sample Wand. While swabbing, do not attempt to scrape or remove excess mucus.

  • Insert the tip of the Cue Sample Wand into one nostril about 1 inch or up to the marker on the Wand. If resistance is felt, do not insert any further. Keep gentle pressure on the outer wall of the nostril and rotate the Wand against the wall 5 times.
  • Then, insert the same Cue Sample Wand into the other nostril about 1 inch or up to the marker on the Wand. If resistance is felt, do not insert any further. Keep gentle pressure on the outer wall of the nostril and rotate the Wand against the wall 5 times.
  • Insert the Sample Wand into the Test Cartridge. The test will begin processing automatically.
The Cue Sample Wand may also be used to test previously collected samples. Dip the Wand into a tube containing an individual nasal specimen in viral transport media. For more details on this method or using the Cue COVID-19 test, please refer to the Instructions For Use (IFU).
