Petri Dish, Sterile

GISCOM Sterile Petri Dishes are high-clarity, ready-to-use disposable culture plates designed for reliable microbiological work. Manufactured from premium-grade polystyrene, each dish is pre-sterilized to ensure contamination-free performance in laboratory and industrial environments. These dishes are essential for routine culturing, microbial isolation, and quality control testing, offering consistent results and dependable hygiene standards.

Key Features

• Pre-sterilised & ready to use – Individually packed in sterile polyethylene bags for contamination-free handling.
• Crystal-clear transparency – Ensures excellent visibility of colonies and culture development.
• Non-toxic & biologically inert – Supports accurate microbial growth without interference.
• Uniform thickness & flat base – Designed for even media distribution and reproducible experimental outcomes.
• Lightweight & shatter-resistant – Safe, durable, and convenient for high-volume daily lab operations.
• Smooth internal surface – Prevents media disruption and promotes optimal colony formation.
• Radiation sterilised – Ensures high sterility assurance suitable for sensitive QC or clinical applications.
