  • Too delicate to ship in an envelope
Style: 5mm, Braided Wire and Insulated Grip
This is my first inoculating loop for working with agar plates and mushroom spawn. All loops I've seen are straight but this one was severely bent when I received it. It was shipped in a mailing envelope so it must have had a rough ride. I straightened the delicate tip as best I could and it's still usable so I didn't return it. ... show more

  • Great for flame test labs
Style: 4mm, Braided Wire and Insulated Grip
It works. Used it in my classroom for flame test labs. Ring holds fluid well and it didn’t fall apart after 20ish cycles of flame to cold solution.

  • Works as intended
Style: 5mm, Braided Wire and Insulated Grip
Works perfectly as intended. I use it for microbio lab. Other people have had their loops break during the semester, this one is still going strong.
