Microbiological Dipslides (Pack of 10)
Our range of microbiological dipslides are essential for monitoring microbial growth wherever there is potential of more than 1000 organisms per ml of sample. Chemiphase dipslides can be used to detect microbial growth which will create slime forming bacteria in various samples ranging from waste vegetable oils, biodiesel, sewerage water, re-injection water from oil wells and all cooling and industrial water applications.
An invisible enemy is far deadlier than one you can see. Bacteria are all around us and in vast numbers. Some of these are harmless and others can cause problems to people and machinery, which can be expensive or life threatening. The Dip slide can help unmask that invisible enemy. The Dipslide can replace the lengthy traditional methods of testing and is safe, reliable, economical and fast at giving an indication of the presence of bacteria. A Dip slide unit consists of nutrient agars on a sampling paddle. The paddle is permanently attached to the easy to grip cap, which is contained within a clear plastic shatterproof chamber. Each box of 10 dipslides (1 pack) is batch numbered for quality control purposes.
Product Information on Biological Dipslides
Our Dipslides typically come with a use by date of 6 - 9 months, dependent of manufacture cycle and type of dipslide. We would advise you that a dipslide could be used after this date as long as no contamination or visible shrinkage shows on the agar surface. We however cannot accept any responsibility for failure or wrong results if this is done. Your Dipslides should ideally be stored at around15 degrees C; they can be stored in higher or lower temperatures if the temperature is kept from fluctuating. Dipslides should be stored in cool dry conditions, but not in a refrigerator. Every care is taken to ensure your Dipslides reach you in a perfect condition. Prior to dispatch Dipslides are quarantined for at least 7 days at 25 degrees C. The high temperature will promote any bacteria into growth should it be present at the point of manufacture, these Dipslides would then be rejected. Every dipslide is individually checked for cosmetic damage and contamination and we are proud to offer dipslides that have typically less than a 1% failure.
Dipslides are supplied in boxes of 10 individual slides together with identification labels, user instructions and a comparator chart to quantify and interpret growth results. Dipslides when dispatched are non-hazardous (Safety Data Sheets Available). However used & contaminated dipslides should be sterilised before disposal, or disposed of by autoclave, or incineration.
