Nichrome Loop Holder with Box
₹99.00pc
Prices are inclusive of GST
Laboratory nichrome loop holders are essential microbiology tools designed to hold nichrome wire loops or needles for transferring, streaking, and inoculating microorganisms onto culture media such as Petri dishes and slants. The holders typically feature a metal or brass body and an insulated handle for safe manipulation and repeatable use.

Description
Specifications:
Secure nichrome wire grip: Screw-chuck or inserted wire design accepts nichrome loops up to typical wire gauges (~24 SWG) for reliable holding during work.
Durable construction: Brass or nickel-plated brass handles resist corrosion and repeated heating.
Insulated handle: Many models include PVC or Bakelite handles for comfortable grip and safety.
Reusable and sterilizable: Easy to sterilize by flame or heat between uses due to nichrome’s high heat resistance.
Applications:
Microbiology laboratories: Transfer and streak bacterial cultures on agar plates or slants.
Tissue culture & biotech labs: Precisely introduce inoculum during culture procedures.
Educational labs & training: Teaching inoculation and aseptic techniques to students.
Clinical & research workflows: Routine sample handling under aseptic conditions.

Precations:
Always sterilise the nichrome loop section by heating until red hot before/after use to avoid contamination.
Avoid prolonged exposure of handle materials to direct flame or high heat.
Replace worn nichrome wires routinely — worn loops can affect accuracy and sample transfer.
Handle flame-sterilised tools with heat-resistant gloves or allow cooling on a heat-safe surface.
FAQ:
Q: What is a nichrome loop holder used for?
A: It holds a nichrome loop or wire used to transfer microorganisms from one culture to another or onto media in microbiological procedures.
Q: Why is nichrome used?
A: Nichrome (an alloy of nickel and chromium) heats quickly, resists oxidation, and cools fast, making it suitable for repeated flame sterilisation cycles.
Q: Can I autoclave the loop holder?
A: Typically only the removable nichrome wire loop is flame-sterilised; avoid autoclaving the entire plastic handle assembly.
Q: What loop sizes are common?
A: Standard loop diameters range from small (~2 mm) to larger (~5 mm) depending on intended volume transfer needs.
