Petri Dish Plastic is a shallow, cylindrical laboratory container made from clear, chemically resistant plastic materials such as polystyrene or polypropylene. Designed for single-use or limited reuse, plastic Petri dishes provide a convenient and cost-effective alternative to glass, especially in applications where sterility and disposability are priorities. These dishes are commonly used in microbiology, cell

Description

PETRI DISH (PLASTIC )

Primary Uses

  1. Laboratory and Medical Applications
  • Culturing bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.
  • Growing cell cultures in research and clinical diagnostics.
  • Performing antibiotic susceptibility and other microbiological tests.
  • Observing seed germination and small plant growth.
  • Sterile sample collection and processing.

Secondary Uses

  1. Educational and Industrial Applications
  • Teaching microbiology and cell biology techniques in academic settings.
  • Environmental sampling for microbial contamination.
  • Small-scale chemical and crystallization studies.
KEY PRODUCT FEATURES

1. Basic Identification Attributes

  • Material: Polystyrene, polypropylene, or similar clear plastics.
  • Shape: Shallow cylindrical dish with flat bottom and matching lid.
  • Sizes: Available in various diameters (commonly 35mm, 60mm, 90mm, 100mm, 150mm).
  • Closure: Loose-fitting or snap-on lid to allow gas exchange while minimizing contamination.
  • Sterility: Often supplied pre-sterilized and individually packaged.

2. Physical & Chemical Properties

  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to aqueous solutions but may be sensitive to some organic solvents.
  • Thermal Resistance: Generally suitable for incubation temperatures up to 37–60°C; not autoclaveable.
  • Transparency: Clear for easy specimen observation under microscopes.
  • Durability: Impact resistant and shatterproof compared to glass.

3. Safety & Hazard Attributes

  • Non-breakable, reducing risk of injury from shards.
  • Disposal considerations for biohazardous material after use.

4. Storage & Handling Attributes

  • Store in a clean, dry, sterile environment.
  • Handle with gloves to maintain sterility.
  • Avoid exposure to solvents and extreme temperatures.

5. Regulatory & Compliance Attributes

  • Manufactured in compliance with laboratory safety and sterility standards.
  • Suitable for use in GMP and GLP compliant laboratories.

6. Environmental & Health Impact

  • Generally non-recyclable through typical municipal systems due to biohazard risk; follow proper disposal protocols.
  • Single-use disposability reduces cross-contamination risk but increases waste.
SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

Safety Handling Precautions

  • Use PPE such as gloves and masks during handling to prevent contamination.
  • Dispose of used dishes according to biohazard waste regulations.

First Aid Measures

  • No specific first aid needed; handle waste to avoid infection risk.

Firefighting Measures

  • Combustible plastic; use CO₂, foam, or dry chemical extinguishers.
  • Avoid inhalation of toxic fumes during fire.
