Description
ROTI®DipSlide PCA is a ready-to-use, sterile contact agar dip slide intended for microbiology. Featuring PCA medium in the Roti®-DipSlides format, it supports routine microbial sampling and colony assessment where a prepared contact-agar surface is preferred over pouring plates. Each slide is sterile and ready for immediate laboratory use, helping life-science and microbiology teams simplify hygiene checks and related quality-control steps. The product is supplied in a box of 20 pc(s) with a pack weight of 0,464 kg, suitable for repeated bench-scale surface or immersion sampling. Manufactured by Carl ROTH, ROTI®DipSlide PCA forms part of a ready-made media range designed for standardised contact-agar workflows. Pre-prepared sterile slides reduce media-handling effort and support consistent presentation during incubation and evaluation. This single-media PCA configuration is practical for laboratories that require a compact, ready-to-use dip-slide format for everyday microbiological monitoring and structured sampling programmes.

Questions about ROTI®DipSlide PCA, ready-to-use, sterile, for microbiology, 20 unit(s), box
What is this article?
ROTI®DipSlide PCA, ready-to-use, sterile, for microbiology, 20 unit(s), box is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope slides & cover glasses, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A slide is the glass a specimen sits on. A cover glass is the thin sheet over it, of a thickness the objective was designed for. A cover glass of the wrong thickness softens the image. Charged and plain slides hold sections differently.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
