Performance

[Applications]

  • Cultivation and preservation of bacteria (I mildew, leaven and bacteria)

Characteristics

  • Easy to use in comparison to cotton plugs which means that massive savings can be made in labor and labor costs.
  • Moisture evaporation rate is less than half of cotton plugs which means that heteropycnosis of the culture solution and PH changes are reduced.
  • Excellent heat resistance property which means that plugs can be dry sterilized (180℃）and high pressure steam sterilized for repeated use.
  • Excellent chemical resistance property.
  • Can be hot water washed and disinfected. Also can be washed in neutral detergent.
  • Hydrophobic property means that bacteria proliferation is suppressed at the sealing area with the container.

Specifications

Silicosen and Bio-Silico are handled more easily than conventional cotton plugs.
