Es geht um die Herstellung von Antibiotika-Proben. Habe "dilution device" gefunden, bin mir aber nicht sicher, ob dieser Begriff auch im mikrobiologischen Zusammenhang benutzt wird. Danke für eure Hilfe!

Discussion

David Tracey, PhD Jun 2, 2011:
"Dilution device" and "dilution apparatus" can both be found on the net, but the Google hit rate is not high. You might want to expand it a bit, like 'apparatus for making dilutions' or some such.
