Petri Dishes

Petri dishes are shallow, lidded plates used to culture microorganisms and cells on solid media. They work by providing a sterile, flat surface and controlled gas exchange, enabling colony growth and isolation. In laboratories and industrial hygiene, petri dishes support routine culturing, environmental swabbing, air sampling, and QC testing. Types include polystyrene sterile plates, vented and non‑vented designs, glass autoclavable dishes, and specialised contact plates for surface monitoring. As an established Lab supplier Better Equipped offers a comprehensive range of high quality petri dishes at great value prices.
