Standardize your serial dilutions
Are you familiar with the proverb
"There's more than one way to skin a cat"?
It means that there are many ways to do the same task.
Well, performing serial dilutions with tubes is no exception.
Each lab technician does it her own way and even she herself can dilute in different ways.
For example, is the stirring time always the same when using tubes with the vortex? And the speed?
In order to always maintain the same quality,
it is important to standardize routine processes. And the easiest way to standardize serial dilutions
is with the Dilucup® System.
Improve the quality of your dilutions
Reliable microbiological counts
The volume of Dilucup® Elegance is highly accurate:
- Usually 9,0 mL ± 0,5 %
- Always 9,0 mL ± 2 % (according to ISO 6887-1:2017)
Save a lot of time
Save all the time of preparation, filling, sterilization, quality control and tube washing with our ready-to-use dilution cups.
In addition, with the Dilucup® System you serial dilute twice as fast than with tubes.
Prevent work injuries
Ergonomic design for comfortable pipetting.
No need of a vortex mixer.
All vibrations are absorbed by the shaker, this prevents injuries as Repetitive Strain Injuries.
Easy to use
Very easy to standardize your serial dilutions Dilucup® System.
The simplicity of the instruments and the process does not require prior training.
Easy storage
Dilucup® takes only half the space compared to tubes.
- Unopened bags: up to 30 months at room temperature
- Opened bags: up to 3 months in the fridge.
Cost-effective
The Dilucup® System requires a bigger initial investment than dilution tubes, but is much more cost-effective in the long term.
It is important to take into account the smaller number of hours that the laboratory technician needs to make serial dilutions.
No need for preparation, autoclaving, performing quality control or washing the containers. In addition, diluting with Dilucup® is twice as fast as with tubes, so additional time is saved in the process.
