Original Note:
Standard practice is to first package swabs in a Sterilization Wrap that then allows a sterilant gas to penetrate after it has been packaged and provides a barrier to microbial penetration for handling. The most common sterilization method for swabs is Ethylene Oxide gas. https://www.cdc.gov/infectioncontrol/guidelines/disinfection/sterilization/sterilizing-practices.html#anchor_1554396484
