Buy Dip Slides (Paddle Testers) - Bacteria & Microbiological Testing
Dip slides allow simple screening without the need for microbiological skills to interpret results or Petri-dish plate methods. The dual surface paddle is coated with specially formulated pre-hydrated long life agar (culture media) and is supplied sterile and ready to use.
Our dual surface paddles are housed in a clear styrene tube. This keeps the agar hydrated and sterile prior to use. The typical use by life is 6 to 9 months depending on manufacture date and agar specification or test range.
