VWR® Glass Petri Dishes – The Standard for Microbiological Culture

In microbiology, biotechnology and related laboratories, the petri dish is a basic but essential tool for culturing and observing the growth of microorganisms. While disposable plastic petri dishes are common, the VWR® glass petri dish stands out as a sustainable, reusable option that delivers superior performance for demanding applications.

Outstanding Advantages of VWR® Glass Petri Dishes

VWR® petri dishes are made from borosilicate glass 3.3, which offers many important benefits for the laboratory:

• High-quality materials: Made from borosilicate glass 3.3, this type of glass is known for its durability, excellent chemical resistance and high temperature resistance. This allows the glass petri dish to be sterilized multiple times and used in applications that require heat.
• Eco-friendly and economical: As a green alternative to plastic petri dishes, the reusable petri dish significantly reduces plastic waste, aligns with the trend of sustainable development and saves costs in the long run, making it ideal for small laboratories.
• Heat resistance and stability: With minimal thermal expansion, this petri dish can withstand relatively high temperature changes, minimizing the risk of cracking during heat sterilization or heating processes.
• Multi-purpose: Can be autoclavable and sterilized, ensuring the necessary sterile environment for microbiological culture.

Various Applications of VWR® Glass Petri Dishes

With its superior properties, VWR® glass petri dishes have many important applications in different fields:

• Microbiological culture: This is the main application, used to culture bacteria, yeasts, molds and other microorganisms on agar media.
• Cell culture: In some cases, glass petri dishes can also be used for cell culture, especially when heat or chemical resistance is required.
• Antibiotic susceptibility testing: Used to test the sensitivity of bacteria to different antibiotics.
• Observation and analysis : Ideal for microscopic observation or short-term storage of samples.
• Heat-resistant applications: Can be used in drying processes or other applications that require high temperatures that plastic dishes cannot meet.
