Title: Sterile Petri Dishes (90mm, Single Compartment, 20 Pack)
Description:
These high-quality, single-compartment, sterile Petri dishes are essential tools for microbiology, chemistry, and medical research. Manufactured from crystal-clear, neutral polystyrene for single-use applications, these 90mm diameter dishes provide excellent visibility for observing samples. The pack contains 20 individually sterile dishes.
Each dish features a vented lid with three support points, facilitating aerobic microbial culturing by preventing complete seal and ensuring adequate airflow. These ventilated dishes are ideal for aerobic cultures. For anaerobic cultures, the dishes can be used without the lid or with a modified sealing method for a completely air-tight seal.
Beyond standard lab applications, these versatile Petri dishes offer a wide range of uses, including:
- Storing small specimens
- Liquid evaporation
- Dissecting small plants and animals
- Etching small circuit boards
- Use as a substrate in herpetoculture (e.g., breeding dart frogs and other amphibians).
The dishes are chemically resistant to a wide array of substances, including oils, alcohols, bases, fats, salts, and various acids (boric, citric, formic, hydrofluoric, lactic, oxalic, salicylic, tartaric), hydrogen peroxide, phenol, potassium permanganate, triethylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, and urea. They have a density of 1.05 g/cm² and a temperature resistance range of -10°C to +70°C (maximum recommended temperature for molten agar is +55°C). Water surface absorption is <0.05%.
