World Class Manufacturer of High Quality Petri Dishes 90x15mm STAR™DISH nesting ALPINE The unique recessed lid on this dish offers excellent stacking stability and saves space. It works with most models of media pouring equip-ment, an absolute must for manual pourers. Four ventilation lugs on underside of lid allow for venting, and prevent condensation from developing and dripping onto culture. The extremely flat bottom allows a reduction in the amount of media required. Patented cross ribs on the bottom make the dish resilient and resistant to warpage when the media is poured at a high temperature. Excellent for performing colony counts, since ribs provide a useful border for making quadrants. 360 90x15mm nesting ALPINE “stacking” with 4 vents & ISO mark 600 per case (24 sleeves) 57 x 38 x 39 7.0 361 90x15mm nesting ALPINE “stacking” without vents & with ISO mark 600 per case (24 sleeves) 57 x 38 x 39 7.0 90x15mm STAR™DISH semi-nesting ALPINE Most suitable for use with high-speed media pouring machines.
