title: Multiple syringe inoculator for agar plates.
abstract: The design and operation of a manually operated multiple syringe inoculator was described. Either 9 or 21 inoculations of constant volume could be made simultaneously. Up to 100 plates could be inoculated in 15 min with excellent reproducibility. No contact occurred between the inoculating needles and the agar surface. Construction was simple and inexpensive, with minimal maintenance.
