Sterile Inoculation Loop Kit

The Dynalon 226505 inoculating loop is a single-use polystyrene tool designed for microbiology laboratories. Supplied in a pack of 1000 blue loops, it supports routine streaking and transfer of bacterial cultures. The disposable format removes the need for flame sterilisation between samples, reducing cross-contamination risk in high-throughput workflows.

Thermal And Power Profile

As a passive plastic consumable, the loop generates no heat, draws no power and produces no acoustic noise during use. It requires no electrical connection, cooling system or calibration, making it suitable for bench-top work inside laminar-flow hoods or on open benches without environmental controls.

Build Integration Requirements

The 7 5/8 in length fits standard manual handling grips and common loop holders used in clinical and research microbiology. The blue colour aids visual identification against agar media. The pack of 1000 units suits high-volume labs but may exceed the needs of low-throughput teaching or quality-control settings.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the Dynalon 226505 loop to a holder without snapping the polystyrene shaft?

Hold the blue polystyrene loop near its base and insert it straight into the holder jaws; twisting while pushing is the step that cracks the shaft.

When should I replace a loop from the 1000-piece pack during daily streaking?

Discard a loop once the blue tip shows any melt deformation, residue buildup, or loss of the smooth radius that delivers consistent inoculum.

What physical limit appears first when the loop is flamed repeatedly in a long session?

The polystyrene shaft softens and bends near the holder after several flame cycles, making accurate streaking impossible before the loop itself degrades.
