Description
Inoculation loop made of platinum-iridium wire, 3 mm is a precision laboratory instrument for microbiological work, including culture transfer and streaking on solid media. The loop is formed from platinum-iridium alloy wire with a diameter of 3 mm, providing a stable working tip for routine aseptic techniques. Offered as a single piece (PU=1), it fits standard inoculation loop holders used in bacteriology and related laboratory settings. The platinum-iridium construction from manufacturer schuett biotec supports repeated use under typical laboratory conditions where metal loops are preferred. This tool belongs to the established range of inoculation loops, needles and holders employed for sample handling and culture work. Its defined wire diameter of 3 mm allows consistent loop geometry for everyday plating and inoculation tasks. The product is intended for professional laboratory environments that require durable metal inoculation accessories. Simple design and alloy composition make it a practical choice for microbiology benches handling bacterial and fungal cultures.

Questions about Inoculating loops, platinum-iridium wire, 3 mm (qty=1)
What is this article?
Inoculating loops, platinum-iridium wire, 3 mm (qty=1) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Schuett-Biotec for laboratory use. It sits in Inoculation loops, spreaders & needles, inside Culture media & microbiology, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A loop, a needle or a spreader transfers and streaks a culture. A calibrated loop of 1 µL or 10 µL is a volume claim. A needle stabs a deep. Disposable sterile plastic and reusable nichrome are different articles. A loop that is not sterile is a mixed culture.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
