Description
Brosciliate glass petri dishes measuring 90mm.
- Material: Made from high-quality brosciliate glass, these dishes are chemically resistant and can withstand high temperatures in a steriliser or an autoclave both wet and dry.
- Design: The dishes typically feature a two-part design consisting of a shallow base and a lid that fits loosely, allowing for gas exchange
- Transparency: They offer excellent optical clarity
- Reusable: Just autoclave and reuse.
The agar is poured on them after they come out of steriliser and not before. You can use a sterilisation pouch to put the clean glass dish into, steriliser and then take them out safetly before placing them inside a still air box or a flowhood and pour right away.
The glass petri dish can be extremely difficult to work with as it needs delicate handling, cleaning where contact with contaminated plate is required(wear gloves and mask), sterilising before use and maintain sterility after sterilisation.
How to properly Sterilise glass petri dish?
You can Sterilise them in oven or steriliser after wrapping them in Aluminium foil tightly.
Sterilise at 15psi for 30mins or preheat oven in the highest setting and then put the wrapped petri dish inside for 30 minutes.
Open them in front of flowhoood or Still air box after spraying them generously with iso propyl alcohol.
You can pour the contaminated plate content into a high bleach solution to kill all contamination and use soft sponge, soap and warm water to clean dishes before they go into steriliser again.
You would need a parafilm to wrap the glass petri dish after transfer. We have disposable plastic petri dish on sale as well.
