Laboratories throughout the world have been praising the KWIK-STIK for decades. That’s because its simple, all-inclusive design makes life easier for lab techs while reducing chances for errors. Each KWIK-STIK contains a qualitative lyophilized microorganism pellet, ampoule of hydrating fluid and inoculating swab. Everything you need to grow reference cultures for QC testing is included in this one handy device. Available in packs of 2 or 6, KWIK-STIKs are universally used for all types of microbiological control testing.
