Product description

Buy dipslides for rapid hygiene monitoring: simple, reliable, and immediately applicable

Do you want a quick and easy way to get a reliable indication of the hygiene level of surfaces or water? With dipslides, you can perform a microbiological hygiene test right away, without complicated equipment or specialized knowledge. Whether you want to buy dipslides for industrial hygiene monitoring, hygiene checks in your dental practice, ensuring food safety, or water quality monitoring: our wide range always offers the right test for your application.

What is a dipslide? Microbiological monitoring made easy

A dipslide is a plastic paddle with a nutrient medium (agar) on both sides, designed for specific microorganisms. The nutrient medium is hygienically sealed in a tube. By pulling the dipslide out of the tube and pressing the medium onto a surface or placing it in a liquid, microorganisms present are transferred to the medium. After incubation, the colonized medium can be compared with images on a reference chart, providing insight into hygiene levels.

Why buy dipslides for hygiene monitoring?

Dipslides are suitable for various applications, including:

  • Monitoring surfaces, equipment, and products for microbial contamination to ensure food safety and comply with legal requirements.
  • Monitoring bacterial growth in cooling water, industrial water, swimming pools, and spas. Regular checks help prevent the formation of biofilm and other microbial risks that could affect the efficiency and safety of installations.
  • Monitoring process water, lubricants, metalworking fluids, and surfaces, where a high microbial count can negatively impact product quality and process safety.
  • General surveillance of hygiene of surfaces in public spaces, offices, and production environments.
  • Regular monitoring between external inspections by authorities such as national food safety agencies.

Dipslides provide an indicative picture of hygiene. For cases where an exact quantitative hygiene evaluation is needed, RODAC plates and Petrifilms are suitable alternatives.

How do dipslides work? Get the most out of your hygiene test

Use a dipslide to quickly check surfaces, equipment, or liquids for microbial contamination. By bringing the culture medium into contact with the surface or water to be tested for a few seconds, microorganisms are transferred. Incubate the dipslide and compare the results to a reference chart for clear interpretation. This is the ideal solution for companies or institutions that want to regularly measure bacterial growth, without the need for a quantitative statement about the number of CFU.

Which types of dipslides can you buy?

Dipslides are available in many different types. With an extensive range of more than 25 different variants, we can meet all your testing needs. Whether you want to detect specific microorganisms or conduct broad, non-selective monitoring of bacteria and fungi, there is always an appropriate solution.

Non-Selective Dipslides

Non-selective dipslides offer broad detection and can identify a wide diversity of bacteria and fungi. They are suitable for general use, including in the food industry, water treatment, industrial, and healthcare settings. Our dipslides are available with or without disinfectant neutralizer and red dye, allowing optimal interpretation and detection of microorganisms for each sample.

We can offer you the following non-selective dipslides:

Selective Dipslides

Our selective dipslides are specially developed for targeted detection of specific microorganisms. By suppressing the growth of other, potentially interfering bacteria, only the desired organisms are visible, ensuring they are not overshadowed by others. This makes your research easier and ensures the test is better suited to your specific needs.

Examples of microorganisms that can be detected with our selective dipslide

  • Listeria monocytogenes
  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa
  • Staphylococcus aureus
  • Escherichia coli
  • Enterobacteriaceae

We can offer you the following selective dipslides:
