Falcon Petri Dish with Lid 100 x 15 mm 14 Packs of 20 Plates Each - 280 Plates Total

Falcon 100 x 15 mm Bacteriological Petri Dishes, Non-Treated, Sterile (351029) – Pack of 280

The Falcon 100 x 15 mm Petri Dishes with Lid (351029) are optical-grade, heavy-duty laboratory vessels engineered for routine bacterial culture, agar plate preparation, fungal isolation, and general laboratory microbiology. Molded from crystal-grade virgin polystyrene, these dishes feature an untreated hydrophobic surface that prevents non-specific cell adhesion, making them ideal for growing non-adherent microorganisms and pouring agar media. Designed with integrated lid venting lugs, these plates promote uniform air circulation while minimizing condensation buildup during incubation. Supplied as a convenient multi-pack configuration of 280 dishes total (packaged as 14 sealed sleeves containing 20 plates each), this consumable line delivers certified contamination-free performance for research, clinical, and industrial microbiological workflows.

Technical Performance & Structural Design

• Optically Clear Crystal Polystyrene: Precision-molded from high-purity polystyrene to ensure distortion-free visual inspection and automated colony counting across the entire culture surface.
• Hydrophobic Non-Treated Surface: Natural, unmodified polymer surface minimizes cell attachment and provides a smooth, level base for uniform agar distribution and disc diffusion assays.
• Vented Lid for Optimal Gas Exchange: Features molded ventilation lugs on the underside of the lid to maintain consistent air circulation and control humidity, reducing condensation formation on the top lid.
• Dimensional Uniformity & Stacking Integrity: Engineered with flat, rigid bottoms and raised perimeter edges for secure, non-slip stacking inside laboratory incubators and automated plate dispensers.
