Petri dishes, plastic, 20/pk
Petri dishes are essential for bacteria science projects! Use them to grow bacteria cultures from around your house or live cultures like bacillus subtillis. This pack comes with 20 sterile disposable 90 x 16 mm plastic petri dishes & covers. They are ready to fill - just add agar. One 125 ml bottle of agar will fill about 10 petri dishes. (Just add enough to cover the bottom of the dish.) These plastic ones cannot be heat sterilized. They have been sterilized by deoxidation.
For some activities using petri dishes, check out our bacteria experiments. Other ideas: swab the inside of your cheek to see what kind of bacteria is in your mouth, study the bacteria that lives in soil or pondwater, and try growing photosynthetic bacteria.

- Sunday, August 05, 2012 Perfect Reviewed By: Courtney Syndergaard I used these at a party and they were perfect and arrived very quickly!!
- Monday, February 20, 2012 Great Reviewed By: Andrew This is great! I love the product! It has great quality for a good price.
- Friday, February 10, 2012 We like the disposable dishes Reviewed By: Tamary Shoemaker These worked very well for a science class activity. I was glad I could buy them in the 20-pack -- it's always great to have a few extras! The lids do tend to come off easily, but we used masking tape to tape the sides closed after inoculating the dishes. The low cost makes it affordable to buy new ones each time and not have to worry about cleaning them.

- Thursday, February 03, 2011 Perfect for what we needed Reviewed By: Melanie Johnson Needed them for a science fair project. Only issue was that 2 of the lids came off when we removed from the package - then those dishes were no longer sterile. Used rubber bands to keep the other lids on.

- Wednesday, April 01, 2009 Plastic Reviewed By: Rachael Ranney I like these Petri Dishes. Unfortunately, these are plastic! I won't recommend these dishes for difficult higher level science classes, but for younger grades without much involvment these are great!

- Friday, May 02, 2008 Plastic Petri Dishes Reviewed By: kathy campbell they worked great for what we needed them for but several were broken during shipping. possibly a smaller box or more packing material would have helped.
*** Home Science Tools adds: If anything you order is damaged, we will gladly replace it at no charge!
- Saturday, February 16, 2008 petri dishes These are great, standard size for all experiments, easy to use, lids work great-they sit like all petri dish lids sit on top of them. I will order again & again as needed.
- Monday, February 04, 2008 petri dishes, plastic, 20/pk Reviewed By: Crystal Faulkner These are great. My husband and our kids collect all kinds of things in them to look at under the microscope.
- Monday, February 04, 2008 We Love These We used these petri dishes with the Magic School Bus Germs science kit. The lids fall off easily when in storage, so you have to keep them in a safe place so they will not be exposed to germs. We bought the Agar from homescience tools too and it works great with these petri dishes. The price is awesome. Thank you homesciencetools!
- Saturday, December 15, 2007 Petri Dishes Reviewed By: Virgil Gibbs We use these dishes all the time to look at specimens under the microscope. No more using mom's tupperware to hold ants, spiders, etc!
