- Diameter (Metric): 90mm
- Height (Metric): 16.2mm
What Is a Petri Dish Used For?
Petri dishes are primarily used for studying microbiology. This includes research around bacteria, fungi and small mosses. Typically, researchers will cultivate these bacteria and grow them within the petri dish, studying the conditions under which they change and grow.
Non-Vented Petri Dish
Non-vented Petri dishes are built differently to triple or single vented Petri dishes. Non-vented Petri dishes allow the lid to sit flat at the base, making them suitable for research in anaerobic contexts. When the plate has been poured, the lack of air flow encourages a longer incubation period.
Sterility
These Petri dishes are Aseptic - meaning they are manufactured in highly sterile environments to eliminate microbiological contamination, even though the petri dishes are not sterilised directly themselves. This makes these Petri dishes excellent for microbiological applications.
Key Features
The Fisherbrand Petri Dishes have a number of key features:
- Polystyrene material is strong, pliable and easy to use
- Non-vented design increases length of incubation periods
- 90mm diameter allows for clear observation of reactions
- 16.2mm height allows liquids to be sufficiently studied
- Non-sterile design is easy to sterilise for immediate use
- Case of 600 (30 subpacks of 20) is cost efficient and convenient
- Aseptic sterility for a wide range of applications
Materials
These Petri dishes are made entirely out of polystyrene. This type of plastic has various benefits:
- Superior insulation, doesn't allow temperatures to affect test results
- Lightweight and easy to stack for easy and convenient storage
- Water resistant in the case of accidental spillages, keeping contents safe
- Resistant to bacterial growth, keeping contents safe and contained
- Recyclable for research labs wanting to be more environmentally conscious
