The UIS-360 Universal Inoculation Spinner is a versatile laboratory device designed to streamline microbial plating and ensure consistent results. It provides smooth, uniform rotation for spreading samples across agar surfaces, improving both efficiency and reproducibility in microbiological workflows. With an adjustable speed range of 10–300 RPM – the broadest in its class – the UIS-360 accommodates various protocols from gentle inoculum spreading to vigorous. Its compact footprint and lightweight build make it easy to handle or even take into the field (it runs on just 3.7 W, so it can be powered by a standard 12 V battery pack). The inclusion of a foot-switch for hands-free control and a protective shield for splash protection further enhance user comfort and safety.
Use it for:
routine culturing and isolation of microorganisms;
antimicrobial susceptibility testing;
pathogen detection in patient samples or research;
epidemiological studies and outbreak investigations;
microbial contamination analysis in food products;
quality control and safety assessments;
monitoring microbial presence in soil, water, and air samples;
assessing environmental pollution and biodegradation processes;
sterility testing of products;
research and development of antibiotics and probiotics;
educational purposes in teaching microbiological techniques;
fundamental and applied research in microbial physiology and genetics.
