Description
Platinum/iridium inoculation loop is designed for reliable microbial transfer in microbiology, molecular biology and tissue-culture laboratories. The instrument uses platinum/iridium wire of 0,6 mm diameter formed into a working loop with an inner diameter of 5 mm, giving a larger sampling area than finer loops when broader streaks or higher inoculum loads are needed. Platinum/iridium wire supports repeated flame sterilisation and maintains a clean, durable working edge for colony handling and culture propagation. The article is offered as one piece with a stated weight of 0,001 kg, suitable for individual workstations or shared media-preparation benches. From manufacturer WLD-TEC, this inoculation loop complements applicators and other accessories used in cell-culture and classical bacteriology settings. Typical tasks include streaking agar plates, transferring colonies and preparing inocula under aseptic technique. Select loop size according to protocol requirements and sterilise between samples in line with laboratory SOP. The defined wire and loop geometry help operators achieve reproducible handling during routine culture work.
This article is part of Inoculation loops, spreaders & needles, in Culture media & microbiology.

Questions about Platinum/iridium inoculation loop, Wire Ø 0.6 mm, inner loop Ø 5 mm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Platinum/iridium inoculation loop, Wire Ø 0.6 mm, inner loop Ø 5 mm, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes WLD-TEC for laboratory use. It sits in Inoculation loops, spreaders & needles, inside Culture media & microbiology, in Life Science & Microbiology.
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.
