MycoEase

... faster, safer fungal identification

Product Description:

This revolutionary, patented and cost effective slide system helps in the identification of fungi faster and with increased safety

How does it work? Each of the two sealed slide chambers contains a cellulose cylinder with dehydrated media. To initiate, rehydrate the media with enclosed reconstituting fluid. Then inoculate from either a direct source or by subculture. One chamber contains Sabauraud Dextrose medium and the other Potato Flake medium.

Why is it safer and work better than traditional methods? The humidity chamber produces an ideal environment for fungal growth. The patented MycoEase allows for air exchange to optimize growth but spores cannot escape the chamber. The unit is constructed so that viewing growth of molds can be performed safely each day. Specially treated coverslips attract spores so that your focus is optimized. It takes just seconds to put the whole unit on the microscope stage and view daily growth. No more guessing when your culture is ready. Once the identifying fungus is viewed, chamber can be discarded or permanent slide preparations can be made using MycoPerm.

MycoEase is ideal for field work or teaching mycology. SHELF LIFE IS ONE YEAR. Specially prepared coverslips, rehydrating pipettes, and materials for 30 tests included with each case.
