Product Overview

This vented Petri dish is manufactured from transparent polystyrene and supplied sterile, using ethylene oxide (EO) sterilisation. Each dish measures 90 × 15 mm and is suited to routine microbiology work where clarity, consistent moulding, and a validated sterile barrier are required.

The vented lid design allows controlled gas exchange during incubation, a feature relevant to culture work where airflow around the plate affects growth conditions. Dishes are supplied in sleeves of 10, with 500 units per pack, suiting laboratories with regular consumable turnover.
