Dilution routes

Two ways to get the dilution vials your samples need

Most samples use two dilution vials. You can buy them ready-made, or buy the liquid in bulk and fill the vials yourself.

Ready-made vials

🏷️ Sales item DR01, Dilution liquid: ready-made vials (100× dilutions)

📦 In the pack: 100 pre-filled, sterile dilution vials

🧪 Enough for 50 samples

✔️ Also needed: nothing

✋ Handling: open and use

Bulk liquid

🏷️ Sales item DB01, Dilution liquid: bulk (500× dilutions)

📦 In the pack: 5 L dilution liquid and 500 empty vials

🧪 Enough for 250 samples

✔️ Also needed: dispenser DD01 once, syringe filters SF01 daily

✋ Handling: you fill each vial yourself

We recommend ready-made vials for almost all users

They arrive pre-filled and sterile, with no dispenser to set up and far less room for handling error.

Bulk lowers the cost per sample, but it adds the dilution dispenser, a daily filter change and the filling step. That effort only pays off at high volume, which our own cost work puts at around 1,000 samples.
