How to use our Dipslides
|
Using our dip slides is easy! No prior training or experience is required to be able to use the dipslides and read the results effectively. Each dip slide has an easy-grip handle and a flexible paddle for ease of use and for surface testing |
Testing Fluids
|
Remove the dip slide from its tube, and without touching the agar gel, immerse the gel part of the slide in the fluid to be tested for about 10 seconds, or hold the slide under running liquid, or spray so that both sides are covered. Allow excess fluid to drain for a few seconds. |
Testing Surfaces
|
Remove the dip slide from its transparent container. Do not touch the culture agar gel. Holding the slide by the tab (and the bottom of the slide if required), press one side of the agar against the surface under test, the ribbed neck above the agar will bend to allow full contact. |
Interpretation
|
After 48 hrs in the incubator, compare the dipslide to the chart provided in the box, reading the result from the closest matching image. |
Disposal
|
Used slides should be incinerated, autoclaved or soaked in disinfectant for several hours before disposal. |
