Pass the loop through a flame 2 or 3 times for about 10 seconds at a time.
A inoculating loop is used for transfers from culture plates to culture tubes instead of the inoculating needle because the needle could puncture the agar in tube. The loop is much easier as well to get liquid amount into the tube.
Because the solid media is more dense over a smaller area so a inoculating needle is used to retrieve the specimen. Where as for a liquid medium the specimen is more spread out over the liquid. The inoculating loop can collect more liquid because there is more metal present at the inoculating specimen retrieval point and has the ability to collect liquid in the loop. I'm currently taking general microbiology and my lab book hardly covers this. A.C.
The inoculating loop should be heated until it is hot enough to turn red, and then allowed to cool for a couple seconds. This ensures that the heat kills the majority of lingering bacteria before or after use.
Central sterile technicians make an average salary of around $35,000 to $50,000 per year, depending on location, experience, and employer.
Streaking is to produce single colonies. If we are digging to the agar while streaking the microbes, instead of growing on the agar surface grows in the subsurface as well. These colonies may be difficult to isolate.
Inoculating loops are used to transfer microorganisms to growth media or for staining slides. They are an important part of the sterile technique as their use permits transfer only of the material of interest.

I took depakote in the past and i would like to know if it will make you sterile. I now take tegretol and lamictal and i would like to know if tegretol or lamictal could make you sterile. If anyone has any answers on this i would like to know. My e-mail is hattmart@yahoo.com. Thank you
No this will not make him sterile.
Put agar jelly in a petri dish to sterilize the dish and then use something like a sterile inoculating loop to put the bacteria on the jelly. Then, seal the petri dish but make sure it is not airtight.
The only way you could guarantee no food poisoning would be to sterilize all your food before eating, which would make most foods unpalatable. And to eat with sterile gloves and sterile utensils in a sterile environment.
No but they will make his bread rise
an innoculated loop shouln't be hot. it should be cooled before contact with the organism by touching it off the edge of the agar or dipped into the top of the broth. if its hot it will kill the organism!
An open loop traffic signal just cycles on a schedule and has no "knowledge" of traffic patterns or current traffic. A closed loop system would have sensors letting it know when traffic was present and a controller that would make decisions based on the traffic conditions.
Unless they were cloned from sterile or hermaphroditic stock, I would say,. yes.
