95-Pin Inoculator Assembly with 40 mL Two-Split Tray — Sterile, Polystyrene, 5/Bag (222-8602-01A)
The 222-8602-01A is a complete, ready-to-use 95-pin inoculator assembly paired with a 40 mL two-split tray, designed for high-throughput replication and transfer of liquid samples across multiple wells in a single stamping motion. Each pin delivers a nominal 10 µL transfer volume, enabling consistent, reproducible inoculation across microbiology, cell biology, and screening workflows. Supplied sterile and assembled in bags of five, these units are ready for immediate use directly from the package.

Applications
- High-throughput microbial replication and spotting onto agar plates or multi-well plates
- Library screening and compound transfer in research and pharmaceutical laboratories
- Parallel inoculation of multiple culture wells for antimicrobial susceptibility or growth studies
- Reproducible liquid sample replication where consistent per-pin transfer volume is required
- Two-split tray format supports simultaneous use of two separate sample sources in a single workflow
Material & Chemical Resistance
These inoculator assemblies are molded from polystyrene, which provides the clarity and rigidity suitable for aqueous biological samples, standard culture media, and buffered solutions. As with all PS labware, contact with acetone, alcohols above 70%, and aromatic or chlorinated solvents should be avoided, as these can craze, cloud, or dissolve the material. Polystyrene is not autoclavable; however, these units are supplied pre-sterilized and are intended for single-use disposable workflows.
Quality & Procurement
Made in USA, Caplugs® Evergreen inoculator assemblies are produced under ISO 9001 quality management from BPA-free, phthalate-free, latex-free polystyrene resin. Each assembly is supplied sterile and ready to use straight from the bag. LabSupplies.com is an authorized dealer of Caplugs® Evergreen products and ships from USA inventory, with volume and institutional pricing available for high-throughput screening and production environments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these inoculator assemblies ready to use out of the bag?
Yes — each unit is supplied fully assembled and sterile, so no additional preparation or sterilization step is required before use.
What does the two-split tray design offer?
The two-split tray divides the 40 mL tray into two separate compartments, allowing two distinct sample sources or media to be loaded simultaneously in a single workflow without cross-contamination between the two sections.
Are these assemblies intended for reuse?
These are single-use disposable assemblies. Polystyrene is not autoclavable, and re-sterilization by other means is not recommended; using a fresh sterile assembly for each run is the intended practice.
