Review & Description
This disposable yellow 1 microliters Astral Loop is made for use with the Astral Inoculation System. It is used in quantitative procedures such as sampling, urine counts, serial dilutions, and bacteriological inoculation. The Astral Loop eliminates the metal or wire loop flaming step and the hazards of spattering, cross-contamination, the risk of infectious pathogens caused as a result of aerosols, and the hazards of open flame. During manufacturing, the Astral Loop is inserted into racks which have 96 individual tubular chambers. When the 96 chambers are filled with the Astral Loops, they are then hermetically sealed with a thin plastic membrane. A dust cover is then placed over the rack, heat shrunk, and sterilized by irradiation. The Astral Loop may be quickly extracted from the sterilized rack by using the Astral Handle. The Astral Loop is flexible enough to facilitate streaking but rigid enough to penetrate the media for inoculation. Prepared plates can be inoculated in an extremely rapid rate in any laboratory setting or condition, whether it be anerobic chambers, fume hoods, satellite labs, or in the field. This system yields substantial savings in small number of plates used, guaranteed sterility and cleanliness, zero cross-contamination, and speed of use. All Astral Loops are certified to be free of RNase, DNase, DNA, pyrogens, and PCR inhibitors. Supplied as 96 loops per rack, with 10 racks per case. Every case is also supplied with a free Astral Handle. Disposable. Sterile. Color: Yellow. Loop Volume: 1 microliters. Bio Plas #: 7000.
