## Description

Scientific Labwares Reusable Inoculating Loops and Needle Set - Color-Coded Handle for Size Identification - Cell Streaking Lab Tools Perfect for Bacteria Cell Tissue Culture Lab: desertcart.com: Industrial & Scientific

Review: Good - Same the product
Review: Not ideal - These are long which makes the difficult to use in still air box for agar transfers…. When flame sateralizing, the metal turns black, and doesn’t return to normal color which makes it feel terribly used after just 1 time. Finally and most importantly, the metal part is not sturdy, it not solid, it flimsily, and so when you want to remove the agar , the metal will bend and won’t just get the job done, so you are going to have to hold it near the tip to make it less bendy and penetrates the agar for a cut, which just makes the length of the tool even more pointless.

## Features

- BACTERIAL LOOP - Ideal for cell culture/streaking and transferring of microbiological samples
- COLOR-CODED HANDLES - Conveniently identify loop diameter with ease (Red - 2mm, Orange - 3mm, Blue - 4mm, Purple - 5mm, Black - Needle).
- SMEAR SMOOTHLY - Loops slide along agar surfaces without cutting or tearing material
- REUSABLE LOOP - Two twisted astm-standard nichrome wire for added durability.
- USAGE - Heat the loop until it glows then let it cool for about thirty seconds before touching your culture. Don't autoclave rather disinfect with ethanol. (Preferred)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great gift for budding scientists
*by A***R on November 7, 2020*

I gave these as a gift to a budding scientist/artist who enjoyed the various thickness of the wands and sheerness making designs in Petri dishes and watching them grow.
