Serial dilution automation with Inlabtec is helping microbiology labs solve a long-standing problem: repetitive, time-consuming dilutions that strain technicians and limit efficiency. In a new independent report by SuperMicrobiologistes, real-world lab users share their experiences with the Inlabtec Serial Diluter — and the verdict is clear. Labs reported significantly less strain on hands and shoulders, … Read more
iNLABTEC AG and I&L Biosystems GmbH have ended their cooperation as of April 1, 2024, due to differing strategic objectives. Therefore, Inlabtec has decided to directly supply customers in Germany. This offers the following advantages: Customers benefit from lower prices due to direct shipments from Switzerland. For questions or more information, customers are competently and … Read more
Step into the future of microbiology lab efficiency, where the manual manipulation of dilution blanks as well as the operation of vortexers or shakers is a thing of the past. The Serial Diluter UC, combined with our Serial Dilution Bags, not only offers economic advantages but also underscores our commitment to environmental responsibility. Key Features … Read more
Viscous foods, cosmetic products, etc. can sometimes only be diluted or homogenised with difficulty for the determination of bacterial counts. Adding 1 gram of creamy sample into test tubes is laborious as is dissolving it. The long vortexing of the test tubes is unpleasant and painful for sensitive hands. A new video shows how the … Read more
During these uncertain times, many businesses are facing disruptions due to the current economic crisis. Rising material and transportation costs, supply chain issues, and shortages of skilled workers are just a few of the challenges that companies are struggling to overcome. Fortunately, there is a cutting-edge solution available for food testing labs that can help … Read more
For most biological laboratories, the use of plastic consumables is a necessity. Without high-purity pipette tips, Petri dishes, etc., sensitive analytical methods cannot be reliably performed. Depending on the sample volume, the cleaning effort of reusable material is often too high to guarantee an efficient laboratory operation. How can a laboratory, without abandoning plastic disposables, … Read more
The article compares the now standard protocol of using sample preparation bags for stomaching** with how the Inlabtec Serial Diluter makes it possible to now perform serial dilutions in Serial Dilution Bags expanding the use of bags as a cost and resource saving alternative to test tubes or cups prefilled with diluent. For stomaching, a … Read more
Many microbiological food testing laboratories face increasing workload, cost pressure, and shortage of qualified personnel, making process optimization and automation important. Full automation of the diverse test process steps (weighing food sample, diluting, homogenizing, dilution series, inoculating, incubating, and plate counts) can be challenging due to sample heterogeneity and many different test parameters. Complex high-tech … Read more
Due to the high number of Covid-19 tests worldwide, 1 ml filtered pipette tips have become a rare commodity. Many laboratories can no longer procure these tips in sufficient quantities. Alternatively, Inlabtec Pipette Filter Plugs provide reliable protection of the pipette against contamination in standard microbiological applications. For the applied SARS-CoV-2-RT-PCR tests, filtered tips are … Read more
The new Serial Diluter UA is a universal sample diluter for the preparation of decimal dilutions for microbiological testing. An integrated bag mixer makes it suitable for all sample matrices including viscous, fat-rich or sugar-containing samples such as cream, egg yolk, syrup, etc. The bag mixer was developed especially for the Inlabtec Serial Dilution Bags. … Read more
