Bacterial Cell Spreader Stainless Steel 1.38″ Wide Bar ZENGSUSU

Description

Product Overview

The ZENGSUSU Bacterial Cell Spreader is engineered for laboratory professionals who demand accuracy, durability, and ease of use when working with agar plates. Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel, the spreader resists rust and corrosion, ensuring a long service life even after repeated sterilization cycles. The 1.38 inch (approximately 35 mm) spreading bar features a uniquely designed triangular end that provides a smooth, even distribution of bacterial cultures without tearing or fragmenting the agar surface. This design minimizes the risk of cross‑contamination and improves the consistency of colony growth, which is essential for reproducible experimental results. The spreader’s compact dimensions—10.1 × 0.8 × 0.7 inches—and lightweight build (0.81 oz) make it easy to handle, store, and transport within busy lab environments.

Usage

Designed for a wide range of microbiological applications, this spreader excels in tasks such as plating, streaking, and spreading bacterial suspensions across agar media. Whether you are preparing standard plate counts, performing antibiotic susceptibility testing, or conducting research on microbial growth patterns, the spreader delivers reliable performance. Its ergonomic shape fits comfortably in the hand, reducing fatigue during prolonged procedures. The stainless steel surface can be sterilized by autoclave (121 °C, 15 psi, 15 min) or by flame, allowing rapid turnover between experiments and ensuring aseptic conditions. The spreader is compatible with standard Petri dishes, multi‑well plates, and other culture vessels commonly used in clinical, academic, and industrial laboratories.

FAQ

Can the spreader be used with other types of media besides agar?

Yes, the stainless steel construction is compatible with a variety of solid and semi‑solid media, including gelatin, agarose, and specialized growth substrates, as long as the surface is flat and the media can be sterilized.

Is the triangular end replaceable if it becomes damaged?

The spreader is manufactured as a single piece; however, ZENGSUSU offers replacement units at a reduced cost, ensuring you can maintain optimal performance without purchasing a completely new tool.

What sterilization method provides the best results for this spreader?

Both autoclaving and flame sterilization are effective. Autoclaving is preferred for bulk sterilization, while flame sterilization offers quick, on‑the‑spot decontamination between plates.

How does the spreader compare to plastic alternatives?

Stainless steel spreaders, like this model, are more durable, can be reused indefinitely, and do not leach chemicals into cultures, unlike many plastic spreaders that may degrade over time.

Is there a warranty included with the product?

Yes, ZENGSUSU provides a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, giving users confidence in the product’s reliability.
