  • They are shallow cylindrical containers with a lid, designed to hold growth medium for culturing microorganisms and other biological samples.
  • They are typically made of plastic or glass, and feature a flat surface for ease of application of the samples.

    The flat surface of the petri dish is ideal for the even distribution of the growth medium and for the observation of results.

  • Petri dishes come in a range of sizes, from tiny dishes for individual samples to larger dishes for larger biological studies.
  • The lids are designed to allow for air circulation, and also to prevent contamination.

    Petri dishes have a wide range of applications, from medical studies and research to food safety and quality control.

  • They are also used for educational purposes, for demonstrating the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms.

    Petri dishes are essential for medical and scientific research, and the quality and accuracy of results depends on the quality of the equipment used.

  • Many petri dishes are disposable, which reduces the risk of contamination, and can be purchased in bulk, which helps save on cost.
