Latest volume accuracy analysis

The volume of a diluent must be accurate to have reliable results and according to EN ISO 6887-1: 2017
the volume should not deviate from 9,0 mL ± 2 % (9 mL ± 0,18 mL).

We want to be better than this
and that is why Dilucup® aims for a volume range of 9 mL ± 1 %.

99,95% of the 25.000 latest Dilucups analysed in our QC laboratory
had a volume of 9 mL ± 1 %,
with an average of 9 mL + 0,26 % mL (9,02 mL)
and a SD of 0,21 %.

Pretty good volume accuracy, don’t you think?

The ergonomic solution for serial dilutions

Have you ever got pain in your wrist or joints?

If so, you surely know how limiting it can be,
requiring sometimes even months of sick leave to recover.

When you use a vortex mixer
vibrations are absorbed by your hand/wrist.
With the Dilucup system,
the shaker is the one that absorbs all movements,
so your joints don’t suffer any damage.

Our serial dilution system
protects you against
repetitive strain injuries in hands or wrists.

It’s really comfortable to use.
Try it and you won’t regret!

Don't let a vortex ruin your well-being!

How to make multiple serial dilutions at the same time?

Making many serial dilutions can be time consuming and monotonous.

Have you never thought about making multiple serial dilutions at the same time?
This is possible with Dilugent® Shaker Pro!

You can dilute up to 7 samples at the same time without getting lost.

Watch the video to see an example!

Thank you very much for this year!

Note that LabRobot will be closed during week 52 (26th ‐ 30th December).
So if you need a new supply of Dilucup pallets before the end of the year,
we need to have your order in by December 20th. We will also be able to process small express orders (one pallet max.) for those placed up until the 28th.

Have a magical Christmas holidays! 🙂

How to enumerate the microorganisms in a food sample using Dilucup?

  1. First homogenize the sample if it is solid. This is the first 1/10 dilution.
  2. Once the sample is suspended or if the sample is liquid, serial dilute it using Dilucup.
  3. Plate 1 mL of the selected suspension(s) and incubate.
  4. Count the colonies (the plates should have between 30 and 300 CFUs to get a statistically valid result).
  5. Divide the average number of CFUs per the dilution level to get the number of microorganisms per mL or g in the original sample.

Watch the video to understand it better!

We hope that your egg is filled with chocolates and not with Dilucups like ours! 😉

We wanted to take the opportunity to inform you that our office will be closed on Friday 15th and Monday 18th of April.

Have a nice Easter break!

We have started to distribute proficiency tests in Sweden.

Proficiency testing is a comparison of the quality of analyzes and working methods between laboratories. These types of tests are important for all laboratories that want to evaluate their quality system.

Our tests are mainly for the environment and food sector.
