Inoculation sticks belong to several types of medical devices.

An inoculation stick belongs to a medical instrument. The first category of medical devices refers to medical devices that can ensure their safety and effectiveness through routine management. Inoculation stick is a commonly used inoculation instrument in microbial experiments. It consists of a plastic handle, a rod body, an inoculation needle or an inoculation ring. The total length of the rod body is between 20 and 35 cm, the diameter of the rod body is about 0.5 cm, and the handle is slightly thicker than the rod body. It is often used to inoculate bacteria on the flat medium and inclined medium of test tubes. In the traditional experimental operation, the inoculation needle or inoculation ring at the front end of the inoculation rod is often burned by the external flame of alcohol lamp to reduce the pollution rate. The limitation of this sterilization method is that it can't kill the bacteria of the inoculation rod. In the inoculation operation of inclined test tube culture medium, the rod goes deep into the test tube, which is easy to pollute the inclined test tube culture medium.
