Introducing the Microppose Deep Draw Extra Long 5 Inch 16G Sterile Syringe Needles – a must-have custom designed tool for precision work in the world of mycology. Designed to meet the unique needs of mushroom cultivators, these extra-long, sterile needles unlock new possibilities for handling liquid cultures and inoculating grain jars and bags with unmatched accuracy.
When inoculating grain or drawing liquid culture from a jar, we can only use 16G or 18G needles. If we choose a smaller or larger diameter needle the mycelium clogs the needle or the needle damages the injection port. The medical community does not make 16G needles longer than 1.5". We worked with a large medical supply company to bring these custom extra long sharp 5" needles to market for use in our industry.
Features and Benefits:
Optimized for Liquid Culture Handling
·Targeted Extraction: The 5-inch length and 16-gauge diameter make it easy to access specific clusters of mycelium without disturbing or mixing the jar, preserving the integrity of your liquid culture.
·Effortless Drawing: With these needles, you can draw liquid culture from deep within the jar without tilting or repositioning, reducing the risk of contamination and ensuring smooth workflow.
Precision Inoculation of Grain Jars and Bags
·Controlled Placement: The long reach allows for precise injection of spores or liquid culture into any area of your grain jars or bags, ensuring even colonization and faster growth.
·Minimized Contamination Risk: The sterile, individually wrapped design guarantees a clean environment for each use, a critical factor in successful mycology projects.
Superior Compatibility and Convenience
Universal Fit: Equipped with a luer lock tip, these needles are compatible with all standard syringe sizes, making them a versatile addition to your cultivation toolkit.
Flexible Packaging Options: Choose from a convenient 5-pack for small-scale operations or a case of 100 for larger, commercial-scale applications.

OMG where were these years ago! Makes my life so much easier! If you have used a liquid culture jar before, you will know what I'm talking about. Trying to suck up that thick colony of mycelium by tilting the jar sideways and having no control over what you get, always a hassle. I tried these today as soon as they arrived and OMG so much easier! No more tilting and trying to draw up that thick mycelium that just keeps moving away from you.
Arrived intact, undamaged, double bagged and clean. This is how I like to do business. Will definitely be doing business with you in the future. Mush love.❤️
As a homebrewer I enjoy isolating and propagating wild yeast strains. Microppose is a great resource for quality, affordable lab supplies delivered promptly. Cheers!
The needles are just the right length to pull a sample from the bottom of an LC jar. I would like to see you offer a longer needle for larger jars but for now the 5" is perfect.
