Inoculating Loops Renon 100 Count 1μl Sterile EO ABS Disposable

Description

Product Overview

Renon’s 100‑count 1 µL inoculating loops are engineered for laboratories that demand precision, sterility, and ease of use. Each loop is fabricated from high‑quality ABS plastic, a material known for its impact resistance, chemical stability, and ability to retain shape after repeated handling. The loops are sterilized using ethylene oxide (EO) gas, a method that penetrates the plastic matrix to eliminate microbial contaminants without leaving residues that could interfere with downstream assays. After sterilization, each loop is individually sealed in a paper‑plastic wrapper, guaranteeing a sterile environment until the moment of use. The design incorporates a thin, flexible sampling rod with an inner ring diameter of 0.8 mm, providing a consistent 1 µL volume for inoculation, streaking, or transfer of microorganisms. The overall dimensions—8.58 inches in length with a 0.03 inch inner ring—fit comfortably in standard loop holders and are compatible with a wide range of incubators, biosafety cabinets, and other laboratory equipment. Packaging dimensions of 10.55 × 7.01 × 1.69 inches and a lightweight of 7.37 ounces make bulk storage and inventory management straightforward. The product carries the model number RENONLAB1UL and has been available since April 3 2019, reflecting a proven track record in the scientific community. With a best‑sellers rank of #17 in the Lab Cell Scrapers & Spreaders sub‑category and a solid 4‑star rating from 19 customer reviews, these loops combine performance, reliability, and cost‑effectiveness for routine microbiological work.

Usage

These inoculating loops are ideal for a broad spectrum of laboratory applications, including bacterial culture plating, colony isolation, sub‑culturing, and quantitative inoculation. Their 1 µL capacity ensures that researchers can deliver precise volumes without the need for additional pipetting steps, reducing the risk of cross‑contamination and saving valuable time. The EO‑sterilized loops are suitable for use in biosafety level 1 and 2 environments, making them appropriate for teaching labs, research institutions, and quality‑control facilities in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Because the loops are disposable, users can avoid the labor‑intensive process of flame‑sterilizing reusable loops, thereby minimizing exposure to open flames and reducing the potential for aerosol generation. The ABS construction tolerates exposure to common laboratory chemicals such as ethanol, isopropanol, and mild acids, ensuring that the loops maintain structural integrity even after brief contact with cleaning agents. When placed in a standard loop holder, the loops provide a comfortable grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended streaking sessions. The individually wrapped packaging allows technicians to retrieve a single sterile loop at a time, preserving the sterility of the remaining inventory and simplifying workflow in high‑throughput settings.

Why Choose Us

Renon’s commitment to quality begins with the selection of premium ABS resin, a polymer that offers a balance of rigidity and flexibility essential for accurate sampling. The EO sterilization process is validated to achieve a 10⁻⁶ sterility assurance level, meeting stringent regulatory standards for laboratory consumables.

FAQ

Are the loops compatible with standard loop holders?

Yes, the 8.58‑inch length and 0.8 mm inner ring diameter are designed to fit most commercially available loop holders used in microbiology labs.

What does EO sterilization involve?

Ethylene oxide gas penetrates the ABS material to eliminate microorganisms without leaving residues, providing a high level of sterility suitable for sensitive applications.

Can the loops be used with chemical disinfectants?

The ABS construction tolerates brief exposure to common laboratory disinfectants such as ethanol and isopropanol, though prolonged immersion may affect flexibility.

How should the loops be stored to maintain sterility?

Store the individually wrapped loops in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The sealed packaging protects the loops from moisture and airborne contaminants until opened.

What is the recommended disposal method?

After use, dispose of the loops in a biohazard sharps container according to your institution’s safety protocols to ensure safe handling of contaminated materials.
