MWE’s MICROLOOPS® are a range of inoculating loops that have been designed and moulded with precision, to ensure you can rely on them for accurate volumetric technique every time

MWE’s MICROLOOPS® are calibrated, ensure better wetting, have precise moulded smooth edges, are medical devices, and validated to ISO standards. We offer a range of MICROLOOPS® and needles.

The method of streaking out of bacteria on agar surfaces plates was devised in Robert Koch’s laboratory, but the introduction of platinum wire loops is attributed to Mazyck P. Ravenel. Although now largely superceded by nichrome, platinum is still used in some laboratories because of its faster cooling and complete resistance to oxidation and chemical degradation.

Available in 2 loop sizes: 1μl, 10μl
