Borosilicate Glass Culture Dishes for Laboratory Use
Our culture dishes are crafted from high-quality borosilicate glass (Boro 3.3), renowned for its exceptional thermal resistance and optical clarity. Available in a range of sizes (35mm to 200mm diameter), they are perfectly suited for a variety of applications including microbiology, cell culture, and plant material cultivation experiments.
Key Features
- Made from durable borosilicate glass (Boro 3.3) for long-lasting performance
- High temperature resistance, capable of withstanding temperature fluctuations up to 200°C
- Transparent design for effortless observation of cultures
- Semi-open design facilitating breathability and CO2 exchange
- Available in multiple sizes to accommodate diverse experimental requirements
Best Practices for Use
To minimize the risk of contamination and ensure optimal experimental outcomes, it is recommended to:
- Maintain a sterile environment within the incubator
- Keep the incubator’s humidity level at 100%
- Invert the culture dish to prevent condensation and potential contamination
Benefits of Inverting Culture Dishes
| Benefit | Description |
|---|---|
| Reduced Evaporation | Slows down the rate of water evaporation from the culture medium |
| Easy Observation | Controls the spread of colonies, thereby facilitating the formation of single colonies |
| Minimized Contamination | Prevents water vapor from condensing on the lid and subsequently dripping into the culture medium |
| Convenient Collection | Aids in the collection of bacterial metabolites and the counting or separation of colonies |
