Answer

These are ready-poured nutrient agar plates (petri dishes), offering a convenient means of culturing microorganisms, as no preparation of the culture medium is required.

They provide a general purpose media, suitable for growing a wide range of microorganisms (bacteria and fungi).
The shelf life is approx. 4-6 weeks if stored at ambient room temperature (below 25° C). It is NOT advisable to store in a refrigerator due to the formation of condensation inside the petri dish, leading to a wet agar surface.

 Cultured petri dishes should be disposed of in the usual manner for used plates, by autoclaving within an autoclave bag or pouch.

 Specifications:

 • Size: 90mm diameter single vent plates
 • Media fill volume: Approx. 18ml
 • Pack Quantity: 10 plates
