• Integrated 3-vent design on the lid facilitates air circulation and minimizes condensation.
• High optical clarity allows clear observation of cultured microorganism morphology without opening the lid.
• Pre-sterilized by manufacturer Aptaca (Italy), ready for immediate use under aseptic conditions.

Applications

• Culturing, colony counting, and microbial identification in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food testing.
• Microbiological analysis of water, air, and production surface environments.
• Microbiological research and practical training at universities and research institutes.
• Performing antimicrobial susceptibility testing and bactericidal efficacy testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What role do the 3 ventilation ribs play in culturing?
The three ventilation ribs create a small gap between the lid and the base, promoting uniform gas exchange for aerobic microorganisms and preventing condensation on the lid from affecting the agar surface.

Can the Aptaca 151/SG plastic Petri dish be reused?
This is a pre-sterilized single-use plastic Petri dish designed to completely eliminate cross-contamination risks between culture batches; re-sterilization for reuse is not recommended.
