Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biological sampling auxiliary device technology, and in particular to a disposable pinworm egg sampling finger cot. Background Technology

[0002] Pinworm infection is a common parasitic disease in children worldwide. The adult pinworms typically parasitize the cecum, colon, and lower ileum. The main symptoms are the worms crawling out and laying eggs, causing intense itching and inflammation around the anus and perineum, disrupting sleep. Children with pinworms often exhibit symptoms such as irritability, night terrors, bedwetting, and weight loss. Pinworms only parasitize humans, lay a large number of eggs, and are transmitted through multiple routes, especially among children due to poor hygiene habits and frequent contact in group settings such as schools and kindergartens. In the family environment, it can also be transmitted between infected children and family members, exhibiting a familial clustering characteristic.

[0003] The detection methods for pinworms are mainly divided into egg detection and worm detection. Due to the special egg-laying habits of pinworms, the positive rate of detecting pinworm eggs in feces is less than 5%. Therefore, pinworm egg detection mainly involves detection around the anus, and the main methods include:

[0004] Wiping method: Samples are obtained by wiping the skin folds around the anus.

[0005] Flotation method: Using a specific liquid to make insect eggs float so that they can be detected.

[0006] Transparent tape wiping method: Wipe the skin folds around the anus with the adhesive side of transparent tape. The eggs will stick to the adhesive side. Then, stick the adhesive side of the tape flat onto a glass slide for microscopic examination.

[0007] In existing pinworm detection sampling techniques, a common method involves using transparent tape or similar adhesive materials to collect samples from the perianal area. However, this method has some drawbacks:

[0008] Easily contaminated: During the sampling process, the sample is easily contaminated by external factors, which can affect the accuracy of the test results.

[0009] Sampling difficulties: After sampling, transferring the sample to a glass slide for testing is relatively difficult.

[0010] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a disposable pinworm egg sampling finger cot. Utility Model Content

[0011] The purpose of this invention is to provide a disposable pinworm egg sampling finger sleeve to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0012] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution: This utility model provides a disposable pinworm egg sampling finger cot, comprising:

[0013] A transparent finger sleeve, comprising an upper splicing layer and a lower splicing layer, wherein the upper splicing layer and the lower splicing layer are spliced ​​and fixed in a cylindrical structure, one end of the cylindrical structure is closed and the other end is open, the upper splicing layer and the lower splicing layer are respectively provided corresponding to the back of the finger and the finger pad, and tear seams are respectively provided on the inner and outer walls of the splice of the upper splicing layer and the lower splicing layer;

[0014] A transparent plastic sheet, the lower splicing layer being adhered to the transparent plastic sheet;

[0015] An anti-slip ring is fixed to one end of the opening of the cylindrical structure. The anti-slip ring has a tear seam, and the tear seam on the anti-slip ring corresponds to the tear seam between the upper splicing layer and the lower splicing layer.

[0016] An adhesive layer is disposed on the outer wall of the lower splicing layer.

[0017] According to the disposable pinworm egg sampling finger cot provided by this utility model, the size of the transparent plastic sheet is 76mm x 25mm x 0.5mm.

[0018] According to the disposable pinworm egg sampling finger sleeve provided by this utility model, the length of the cylindrical structure is 50mm-60mm.

[0019] According to the disposable pinworm egg sampling finger sleeve provided by this utility model, both the upper splicing layer and the lower splicing layer are transparent plastic film layers.

[0020] According to the disposable pinworm egg sampling finger sleeve provided by this utility model, a tear strip is fixed on the anti-slip ring.

[0021] According to the disposable pinworm egg sampling finger sleeve provided by this utility model, the anti-slip ring is a rubber band, and the cross-sectional shape of the rubber band is rectangular.

[0022] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:

[0023] The transparent finger cot of this invention is initially attached to a transparent plastic sheet. When in use, it is peeled off from the transparent plastic sheet and put on the finger to collect pinworm eggs. The use of a plastic sheet instead of a glass plate as a consumable reduces the cost of the experiment. After sampling, the finger cot is attached to the plastic sheet, and the upper and lower splicing layers are peeled off. The lower splicing layer remains on the plastic sheet and can be directly observed under a microscope.

[0024] This invention features a tear seam between the upper and lower splicing layers, allowing for direct separation of the two layers and reducing the difficulty of transferring insect eggs. Furthermore, since the lower splicing layer is directly attached to the plastic board, contamination is avoided. Attached Figure Description
