Nice sterile loops, for me much easier than having to flame/heat the same loop dozens of times.
The order arrived well packaged and in a timely manner and as described - as always with Darwin Biological. Thank-you - note: It would be good however to see the packaging materials considered, so no polystyrene chips used and another form of more sustainable packing material used instead perhaps, please.
Hi Duncan, Thank you for your thoughts and I'm glad you're happy with your order. All polystyrene chips are resused from deliveries we receive; we are however attempting to pursuade the manufacturer in question to swap to a more eco alternative. Many thanks, Meg
Very happy with the service and the product and I will definitely use them again.
Thank you.
We haven't used the product yet, but the service was efficient and friendly. Received the product in a reasonable timeframe.
Recently come across this website the products are at a really good price received very prompt and will continue to use them
Used for an anatomy lesson, great resource that the students loved. Could be improved by leaving the ureter, artery and Vein attached.
Hi Emmanuel, Some condensation is perfectly normal, ensure you store and incubate with the agar at the top to avoid any drips onto your bacteria. Kind regards, Meg
Good for low power use (x40) to demonstrate how to measure for an estimate of cell size. Not good at a higher power magnification as the imprint of the scale and numbers cannot be seen.
Thank you for sending out our order so promptly and so well packaged (all sustainable, which was very nice to see). We were very pleased with our order and have already dissected our way through a significant proportion, so will be looking to re-order a similar quantity at a similar time next year.
I ordered 100 preserved locusts which came in five jars (each containing 20 locusts). Unfortunately, two of the jars had cracked lids and the preserving fluid had leaked out from one jar. The damage occurred in transit as the package came with an apology note from Royal Mail (with instructions on claiming for damages). The locusts were of good quality and none were damaged on inspection.
I only mention this as it might be necessary to add more cushioning around individual jars to avoid knocking together...?
Ordered Drosophila culture on 28th April.
Email came 30th April 'On its way'.
Asked where it was on 3rd May.
Bank Holiday Monday 6th May
Email came 7th May 'We will send it today'
Different email 7th May - We fulfilled your order from our store Darwin Biological 7 days ago and would love to get your feedback.
This review - 7.00 am 8th May. Have not got culture yet but
Royal Mail Tracking says it will arrive morning of 8th May
Product was ordered on a Thursday and with me by the following Tuesday morning. Worked well for the A-Level antimicrobial resistance practical. Would definitely recommend to others for this practical.
The rats were very clean and undamaged. Great Quality. Many thanks also for super customer service and quick delivery.
Arrived as described. Intact brain with all the important bits attached. Pupils really enjoyed the dissection.
I bought a culture to start my own at home, as I am breeding very tiny fish that have even tinier babies! I can’t speak to my colony as it’s only been a week, but the container I received was very well packaged, delivered fast and was teeming with these little guys.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻.
Dan.
These worked perfectly as part of the GCSE antibiotic resistance practical.
