Saline 0.85%, 5mL Fill, 16x100mm Glass Tube
Hardy Diagnostics Saline 0.85%, 5ml is a sterile isotonic sodium chloride solution designed for microbiological and clinical laboratory use. It is commonly used as a diluent or suspension medium for preparing bacterial inocula, performing serial dilutions, and rinsing or washing biological samples.
With a physiological concentration of 0.85% NaCl, this solution maintains osmotic balance to prevent cell lysis or plasmolysis, ensuring the integrity and viability of microorganisms during testing procedures. Each tube is prefilled, sterile, and ready-to-use, eliminating the need for in-house preparation.
Applications include:
• Preparation of test suspensions and serial dilutions of microorganisms
• Rinsing and washing of microbial cells or surfaces
• Use as an isotonic control in microbiological and clinical assays
• Ideal for microbiology, pharmaceutical, and QC testing environments
Features and Benefits:
• Sterile, prefilled 5ml isotonic saline solution (0.85% NaCl)
• Maintains osmotic balance for microbial and cell integrity
• Flat-bottom glass tubes for easy handling and bench stability
• Leak-proof screw caps for secure transport and long shelf life
• Optically clear glass allows unobstructed viewing
• Reduces in-house prep time and contamination risk
