Inoclic™ (Short)

Productcode: 040001
Supplier: i2a
Package size: 250

Product information

Inoclic™ is intended for rapid preparation of standardized inocula 

  • Preparation of a standardized inoculum from one or several colonies
  • Simple and fast, Inoclic™ avoids measurement McFarland for the preparation of inocula. Achieving equivalent 0,5 McFarland suspension or 0,5 McF diluted 1:10 Inoclic™ has been validated to perform the spotting of mass spectrometry identification and suspension for disk diffusion antibiogram, from the same colony.

Researchs

Comparison of the use of a cost effective method with 2 standardized methods to perform direct and repeatable susceptibility test in a microbiology laboratory
A new device Inoclic™ based on classical platinum wand-type inoculator system was studied for inoculation of a wide range of culture media. Inoclic™ device appears a convenient and valid alternative to agar diffusion or broth dilution to determine susceptibility of aerobic pathogens.
Evaluation of a new inoculum standardization device and a fast susceptibility testing medium for Staphylococcus aureus antimicrobial susceptibility testing
New device INOCLIC™ for inoculum preparation and standardization, and new rapid medium MHR-SIR™ were tested for Staphylococcus aureus A.S.T. Sixty five different clinical strains of S. aureus, including fifteen Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains, were tested using two different methods for inoculum standardization: Inoclic device (i2a, Montpellier, France) versus standard 0.5 McFarland suspension according to CLSI guidelines. And two different culture media: classical Mueller-Hinton medium (MH, i2a, Montpellier, France) versus fast Mueller-Hinton medium (MHR-SIR™, i2a, Montpellier, France).
