Products
Nitrile powder-free examination gloves (pack of 100, medium)
Synthetic nitrile examination gloves, powder‑free, non‑sterile; marketed for medical, healthcare and dental applications as a biological/chemical barrier and latex‑allergy alternative. Shelf life provided by vendor.
0.2 mL 8‑strip PCR tubes with flat clear caps (pack)
Strip PCR tubes (8‑strip) with clear flat caps manufactured from virgin polypropylene, ultra‑thin walls for efficient thermal transfer; certified free of detectable RNase/DNase and PCR inhibitors, pyrogen‑tested.
96‑well, multi‑color network‑connected real‑time PCR detection system (96 wells, 5‑color)
High‑throughput real‑time PCR instrument supporting 96 wells, multi‑color detection, network and cloud connectivity, thermal-gradient features and multiplex analysis for gene expression and sequence detection.
Sterile vented polystyrene Petri dishes (90×15 mm, pack)
Disposable, EO‑sterile, vented polystyrene petri dishes supplied in bulk packs for microbiology applications.
Analytical precision balance (high‑resolution, lab grade)
Precision analytical balance with high readability (0.1 mg), internal adjustment, touchscreen interface, databases for operators/products/weighings, and multiple communication interfaces (USB, RS232, Ethernet, Wi‑Fi).
Nylon flocked swab, regular, 80 mm breakpoint, sterile, dry tube (pack)
Sterile, individually packaged nylon flocked swabs with a molded break point supplied in dry tubes; designed for improved specimen uptake and rapid elution for downstream antigen, immunoassay, molecular and culture testing across multiple anatomical sites.
