Advantages and disadvantages of Disposable Petri Dish vs glass Petri Dishes
Advantages of disposable plastic Sterile Petri Dishes:
1. Reduce the labor intensity of experimenters.
Disposable Petri Dish are sterile products, which can reduce the labor intensity of experimenters from actual operation. From the income and expenditure of the enterprise, the labor cost of the enterprise can be reduced and the cost of the enterprise can be saved. Sterile Agar Plates, and ultimately improve the test accuracy of the experiment. Disposable Petri Dish are suitable for laboratory inoculation, streaking, and culturing of isolated bacteria and plant material.
Disadvantages of disposable plastic Laboratory Dish Sterile:
1. The explicit cost of the product is high and the waste is more.
Advantages of glass Petri Dishes and Bacterial Culture:
1. High reuse rate.
Glass petri dishes used in the laboratory can be reused many times, the product purchase cost is relatively low, and the waste is relatively small.
2. The scope of the experiment is wide.
Glass petri dishes have excellent chemical resistance and heat resistance. In line with GMP requirements, the thickness is uniform, and the transparency is high, which is convenient and clear to observe the colony morphology and count the colonies. Glass petri dishes can be used for adherent culture of plant material, microbial culture and animal cells.
Disadvantages of glass petri dishes:
1. The quality of the glassware itself.
Microbiology laboratories have high requirements for the cleanliness of glassware. Although the reuse rate is high, the use of multiple processes such as washing, drying, sterilization, and transportation is very expensive. During this process, some glassware shatters on their own when cooled by autoclaving.
2. Damage caused by personal reasons.
In the experiment, due to the non-standard experimental operation method, it slipped and broke, and the labor intensity during the cleaning process was high. The labor cost and energy consumption increase, especially the hidden usage cost is higher.
Professional petri dish gas path design ensures the gas demand in the cultivation process, which is conducive to the growth of microorganisms.The product is crystal clear, with uniform thickness, and the bottom of the dish is flat and clean, which is easy to observe with the naked eye or automatically count the colonies.We have Round Petri Dish,2 Chamber Petri Dish Culture,Square Petri Dish, Automated Petri Dish and so on.
