Description
Swab without medium, sterile is a sterile laboratory swab supplied without medium, presented in a tube with an aluminium rod and cotton tip, in a peel pack. It belongs to labware used in microbiology, molecular biology and cell culture, and is grouped with accessories for tissue cultures as well as applicators and inoculation loops. The in-tube, peel-pack format keeps the aluminium rod/cotton swab contained until use. Absence of medium allows the laboratory to apply its own processing or culture steps after the swab has been used as an applicator. Pack size is 900 pc(s) and the pack weight is 12,000 kg. Construction remains aluminium rod/cotton throughout this sterile, medium-free presentation. These swabs from manufacturer Heinz Herenz Medizin are intended where a sterile swab without medium in a tube and peel pack is specified for tissue-culture accessory and microbiology applicator work. The cotton tip on the aluminium rod is the working end described for this product. Use the 900 pc(s) peel-pack quantity when sterile in-tube swabs without medium, aluminium rod/cotton, are required in microbiology or cell-culture settings.
This article is part of Cell culture media & sera, in Cell culture.

Questions about Swab without medium, sterile, aluminium rod/cotton, peel pack
What is this article?
Swab without medium, sterile, aluminium rod/cotton, peel pack is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heinz Herenz Medizin for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture media & sera, inside Cell culture, in Microbiology lab supplies.
Cell-culture medium is the liquid a cell line grows in. Serum, often fetal bovine, supplies what the basal medium does not. With or without glutamine, with or without phenol red, and the serum origin are different products. Serum is a cold-chain article and is never part of free standard delivery.
Cell culture grows cells outside the body. The medium, often with serum, supplies what the flask does not. A flask or a dish is the vessel, treated so the cells attach or left untreated so they float. Contamination by microbes, or by another cell line, is the ordinary failure. Cold-chain articles in this work, including serum, are never part of free standard delivery. Lines are catalogued by ATCC. Papers are on PubMed. Practice is summarised by the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
