Streamline microbial inoculation and delicate sample transfer with LevGo smartPicks. Crafted from premium, sustainably sourced wood, these disposable inoculation picks provide a safe, economical, and eco-friendly alternative to traditional wire loops and plastic needles. They are specifically designed for isolating individual microbial colonies, transferring sensitive cultures, and performing highly precise streaking on agar plates without the risk of tearing or gouging the delicate gel surface.
Unlike metal loops that require constant flaming and cooling—which can accidentally aerosolize hazardous pathogens or kill live cultures—smartPicks are completely disposable. This single-use format avoids carrying material from one sample to the next and significantly accelerates high-throughput microbiology workflows. Available in both Needle Point for ultra-fine colony isolation and Semi-Point for broader application streaks, these versatile tools are supplied in massive bulk packs. Manufactured to strict quality standards, they are an essential consumable for clinical diagnostics, food safety testing, and academic microbiology labs.
