Inlabtec – for sustainable and efficient dilution
Welcome to the introduction of Inlabtec Serial Diluters – an innovation that simplifies microbiological workflows. Our goal is to enhance efficiency and precision in the preparation of decimal dilutions for microbiological testing.
Our latest innovation, the automated Serial Diluter UC, combines the precision and reliability of our bag-based systems with user-centric automation. The semi-automatic Serial Diluter UA allows sample dilution through the simple act of pushing a lever. The Serial Diluter TA and SA models are also semi-automatic systems, but mixing occurs by direct rinsing of the sample with the diluent flow from the pipette tip.
Serial Diluter UC: The Automatic
The Serial Diluter UC is our latest innovation. Through user-centered automation, the process of serial dilution is streamlined to simple pipetting. Differently illuminated openings provide instructions to the user and facilitate comfortable and reliable sample addition and retrieval. Our state-of-the-art sensor technology reliably detects sample additions and ensures efficient control over the bag mixer and dispensing unit for maximum process speed.

Serial Diluter UA: The Semiautomatic
The Serial Diluter UA is a semi-automatic system. Mixing the sample and filling the bags is triggered by simply moving the dosing lever to the right. After a short familiarization period with manual operation, you achieve the highest efficiency in creating dilution series – a proven system used by global leaders in food control.

Serial Diluter TA: The Flowmix
The Serial Diluter TA is our original model for sample dilution in bags. The user places the pipette tip with the sample into a bag, attaches the dosing arm, and with the press of a button, diluent flows through the tip containing the sample, followed by a sterile air burst. This method works efficiently when used in combination with pipette tips that have a wide opening.
