Versatile Applications for Laboratory Use

Petri dishes are essential tools for a variety of laboratory procedures. Ideal for microbial culture, cell culture, and other experiments, they enable reliable observation and analysis of samples. Their stackable design and clear construction promote efficient storage and accurate tracking of colony growth, making them indispensable in scientific research, education, and diagnostics.

Durability and Chemical Resistance

Crafted from high-quality borosilicate glass or sterile polystyrene, these Petri dishes offer robust resistance to most laboratory chemicals and reagents. The glass type can be reused and autoclaved, ensuring consistent sterility while minimizing environmental impact, while plastic types provide a sterile, single-use option for high-throughput applications.

FAQs of PETRI DISH (CULTURE):

Q: How should I properly sterilize reusable glass Petri dishes before use?

A: Glass Petri dishes made from borosilicate can be autoclaved at temperatures up to 121C for effective sterilization prior to culturing microorganisms or cells.

Q: What is the benefit of grid or raised line markings on these Petri dishes?

A: Grid or raised line markings assist in easy colony counting, enabling precise assessment and documentation of microbial growth in laboratory experiments.

Q: When is it recommended to use disposable plastic Petri dishes instead of glass ones?

A: Disposable plastic Petri dishes are ideal for experiments requiring strict sterility or for single-use scenarios that prevent cross-contamination, such as clinical or high-throughput settings.

Q: Where can these Petri dishes be applied within a laboratory environment?

A: These Petri dishes are suitable for a variety of settings, including research laboratories, diagnostic facilities, and educational institutions for microbial and cell culture procedures.

Q: What process should I follow to count colonies efficiently on these dishes?

A: Utilize the grid or raised line markings on the clear surface, and view under proper lighting to systematically count and record colony numbers for accurate results.

Q: Are Petri dishes stackable, and what advantage does their stackable design provide?

A: Yes, Petri dishes are designed for stackability and nest without sticking, which facilitates organized storage, minimizes lab space usage, and protects samples from contamination.
