Petri Dishes

Sterile Petri Dishes

Simport Petri dishes are available in a variety of shapes and sizes for use in routine procedures and with automated equipment. Economical, optically clear dishes are precision molded from biomedical grade polystyrene so cultures are clearly visible without distortion.

• D210-7, Size: 100mm x 20mm - For unimpaired observation of specimen growth, with raised straight ridge around top for stable stacking.
• D210-7WL, Size 100mm x 20mm - This dish has 3 venting ribs into the under side of the lid to prevent condensaton build-up.
• D210-8, Size 100mm x 25mm - Accomodates deeper fills for longer culture periods. Used for fungal cultures, plant propagaton. This dish has 3 venting ribs into the under side of the lid to prevent condensaton build-up.
• D210-8R, Size 100mm x 25 - Similar to D210-8 but with non-vented lid having a raised straight ridge around top for stable stacking.
• D210-13, Size 60mm x 15mm - For use whenever a small quantity of culture is desirable. For unimpaired observation of specimen growth, with raised straight ridge around top for stable stacking. This dish has 3 venting ribs into the under side of the lid to prevent condensaton build-up.
• D210-14, Size 50mm x 9mm - Box type dish for classroom studies, water studies, culturing mycobacteria, aerosol testing, membrane filter and immuondiffusion techniques. Tight lid prevents sample dehydration.
• D210-15, Size 35mm x 10mm - Selected for small quantities of culture media. For unimpaired observation of specimen growth, with raised straight ridge around top for stable stacking. This dish has 3 venting ribs into the under side of the lid to prevent condensaton build-up.

Square Petri Dish w/ Grid

Polystyrene. Free from optical distortion and sterile. These dishes are ideal for phage typing, susceptibility testing, plate counts, and probe assays. Each 13mm grid is marked numerically in one direction and alphabetically in the other. This dish has 4 venting ribs into the underside of the lid to prevent condensation build-up.

Contact Plate

Polystyrene. These dishes are free from optical distortion and are sterile. The grid is 10 x 10 mm with numbered and lettered squares to facilitate counting and to locate colonies. The D210-17D model is designed with a convex bottom to save on culture medium.

Absorbent Pad Petri Dishes

Polystyrene. These 50mm x 9mm sterile Petri dishes with absorbent pads are ideal for culturing micro-orgaznisms on either agar or broth based medium. Designed to accomodate 47mm diameter membrane filters. These dishes are stackable and have squared off edges on both top and bottom which provide convenient grips for one handed opening. The snug fitting top ensures that neither the absorbent pad nor the agar medium will dry out during incubation. A frosted area on top of the lid permits labeling.
