Sampling and Laboratory Supplies
Retracting Sampling Heads
Our retracting sampling heads are made of corrosion-resistant materials, and spring-loaded to extend the sampling rods under centrifugal force during sampling and retract them for protection while the sampler is at rest. Fits "Type-I" rods.
| Price: | $125.00 |
Sampling Rods
Injection-molded clear plastic rods, 1.59mm x 1.59mm x 32mm. These "Type-I" rods have a small nub that can be used
as a reference point to determine the collection side of the sampling rod. Rods are available ungreased in packages of
100, or pre-greased in larger quantities.
(Note - pre-greased rods require the purchase or supply of a storage
tray for shipping)
| Ungreased Rods - 100: | $90.00 |
| Pre-greased Rods - each: | $1.20 |
| Pre-greased Rods - 420: (tray extra) | $500.00 |
Sampling Rods Storage Tray
Machined from one-quarter-inch thick Lexan, these trays are durable, stackable, and hold up to 420 "Type-I" rods (12 rows by 35 columns)
| Price: (rods extra) | $150.00 |
Sampling Rod Slide
Microscope slide used for mounting sampling rods for analysis, sometimes referred to as a microscope stage adaptor. This clear plastic slide is machined with two polished grooves so that up to two "Type-I" rods (1.59mm width) can be analyzed at a time. 76mm x 35mm x 3mm.
| Price: | $10.00 |
Calberla's Stain
An aqueous mountant containing Basic Fuschin, which colours pollen to aid in identification during microscopic analysis. 50mL bottle.
| Price: | $50.00 |
NOVAGARD G697 Silicone Compound
This silicone grease is highly recommended for use as the embedding medium on sampling rods. 5.3oz tube.
| Price: | $52.00 |
