The MTC Bio line of bacteriological spreaders
has been expanded to include four different shapes and sizes. In addition to
the original L-shape, a similar T-shape version and two triangle shapes (large
and small) are now available. All versions are supplied in sterile packaging,
but are also autoclavable and have smooth, rounded edges to prevent unwanted
cutting, scraping or gouging of agar during inoculation.
L-Shape
The original spreaders are ideal for spreading
bacteriological cultures evenly. The shape allows the user to rotate and apply
easily throughout an entire round plate or dish. They are made of ABS and have
a slight upward curve at the edge to prevent dragging or scraping.
