Inlabtec serial dilution system

Serial dilution of samples is standard practice in microbiology. Purchasing pre-filled diluent tubes can be expensive, while preparing them in-house can be laborious and time-consuming. In either case, performing the actual dilutions do not get any easier.

The Inlabtec Serial Dilution System (SDS) replaces tubed media with single-use sterile bags. The sample is pipetted into the bag, and the sample is homogenised by the SDS. According to the company, in laboratory trials the SDS was faster and more accurate than manual methods.

The SDS can save on both storage space and the amount of waste produced compared to disposable plastic tubes, which minimises environmental impact.

Serial Diluter UA has an integrated Stomacher-like bag mixer, therefore all known pipette tip types can be used without any effect on dilution speed. The working process is 100% identical to the standard method and complies with EN ISO 6887-1: 2017.
