Petri Dish (Product Code: SCL315/057) is a 3 inch diameter borosilicate glass culture dish used to grow, hold and observe cultures, seedlings and small specimens in biology and microbiology labs. Its crystal clear glass is heat and chemical resistant, so the dish can be sterilised, used with media and stains, washed and brought back into service many times. This reusable glass petri dish for labs in India and abroad is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Petri dishes are the standard vessel for bacteria culture experiments: sterile agar is poured in, allowed to set, then inoculated with swabs from hands, surfaces or air exposure to show where microbes grow. Botany classes line a dish with moist filter paper to germinate seeds and follow root and shoot growth day by day, while other groups use dishes to grow bread mould, observe small aquatic organisms under a hand lens, or hold specimens during dissection. Few items of microbiology lab equipment are used as often in a school or college.
Sterilise glass dishes before culture work by the method your lab follows, and allow them to cool gradually. Label the base rather than the lid, since lids can be swapped. After microbial work, sterilise the used dishes and their contents before washing, then clean with detergent and rinse well so no residue affects the next culture.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades as ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this petri dish, which it makes at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, hospital laboratories, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct, so the glassware does not pass through a trader before it reaches the bench. Repeat orders to replace breakages are handled by the manufacturer itself; just ask us. Our company profile has more.

What is the diameter of the Petri Dish?
The Petri Dish has a 3 inch diameter, a compact size for student culture plates, seed germination on moist paper and holding small specimens for study under a hand lens or microscope.
Is a lid included with the petri dish?
Our current listing does not state whether a lid is supplied with this petri dish. Please confirm on your quotation through the contact page, or see the Petri Dish Glass With Lid listing if a matching lid is essential for your culture work.
Can the glass petri dish be sterilised by heat?
Yes, the borosilicate glass petri dish is heat resistant and suited to heat sterilisation by the method your lab follows. Avoid sudden changes of temperature, such as moving hot dishes onto a cold, wet surface.
Why choose a glass petri dish over disposable plastic?
A glass petri dish can be sterilised and reused many times, stays optically clear and resists stains and reagents. That suits labs that run cultures regularly and would rather not buy disposable plastic dishes for every practical.
How should petri dishes be cleaned after culture work?
After culture work, sterilise the petri dishes together with their contents first, discard the medium safely, then wash with detergent and rinse in distilled water so that no residue affects the next culture.
