Laboratory Consumables – Microbiology Inoculating Needles
Reliable Tools for Anaerobic Cultures & Deep Media Inoculation
At Nanotec.lk, we offer a specialized range of inoculating needles designed to meet the demanding needs of clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical testing, food microbiology, and research laboratories. Inoculating needles are essential for transferring microorganisms into deep agar media, conducting stab cultures, and accessing specific layers in semi-solid or liquid media without disruption.
Our collection includes sterile disposable plastic needles for single-use sterility assurance and flame-resistant nichrome or platinum wire needles for repeated use in professional labs. With rigid shafts, sharp precision tips, and comfortable handles, these needles ensure clean penetration, reduced contamination, and accurate microbial transfer in anaerobic and deep-layer cultures.
