1 µL Flexible Sterile Inoculation Loops, Blue Polystyrene, Calibration Certificate — Case of 1000 The Globe Scientific 1 µL Inoculation Loop is a flexible, sterile polystyrene loop engineered for accurate quantitative streaking and colony transfer. Color-coded blue and supplied with a calibration certificate, it suits urine culture quantitation, primary plate streaking, and routine subculturing in clinical and research microbiology. Technical Specifications Product Type Inoculation Loop, Flexible Volume/Size 1 µL Material Polystyrene (PS) Closure/Cap Zipper-closure bag Color Blue Calibration Calibration Certificate included Sterility Sterile Pack Size 1000 loops/case (configuration varies — see below) Available Options 10/zipper bag, 100 bags/case 2871-10 $141.30 per case 25/zipper bag, 40 bags/case 2871-25 $122.40 per case Applications Quantitative urine culture plating using calibrated 1 µL volume Primary streaking onto agar plates for colony isolation Subculturing from broth or blood culture bottles Bacterial colony transfer for identification and susceptibility setup Inoculation of selective and differential media Routine QC streaking in CLIA and ISO 15189 microbiology workflows Quality & Procurement Purchase from labsupplies.com, an authorized Globe Scientific dealer shipping from US inventory. Each bag and case carries lot numbers to support traceability for CAP-, CLIA-, and ISO 15189-accredited laboratories. A calibration certificate accompanies every loop.

Each loop is supplied sterile in a zipper-closure bag and is ready for immediate use, eliminating flaming or autoclaving between samples. What does the calibration certificate confirm? The certificate documents that the loops deliver a calibrated 1 µL volume, which is essential for quantitative procedures such as urine colony counts. How many loops come in each case configuration? Both SKUs total 1000 loops per case. SKU 2871-10 packs 10 loops per bag across 100 bags; SKU 2871-25 packs 25 loops per bag across 40 bags. What material are the loops made from? These loops are molded from blue polystyrene (PS). The flexible design reduces agar gouging during streaking while the color aids visibility on the plate. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Product", "name": "1 µL Flexible Sterile Inoculation Loops, Blue PS, Calibration Certificate", "brand": {"@type": "Brand", "name": "Globe Scientific"}, "description": "Globe Scientific 1 µL flexible sterile polystyrene inoculation loops, blue, with calibration certificate. 1000 loops per case in two bag configurations.", "offers": { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "priceCurrency": "USD", "lowPrice": "122.40", "highPrice": "141.30", "offerCount": 2, "offers": [ {"@type": "Offer", "sku": "2871-10", "price": "141.30", "priceCurrency": "USD"}, {"@type": "Offer", "sku": "2871-25", "price": "122.40", "priceCurrency": "USD"} ] } } { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ {"@type": "Question", "name": "Are these inoculation loops sterile and ready to use?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes.
