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 check to see what kind of bacteria is in your mouth, study the bacteria that lives in soil or pondwater, and try growing photosynthetic bacteria.

I thought these petri dishes were very good quality and work very well. They grow bacteria very well.

This is a great product for my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. We are studying bacteria, and had a blast finding the dirtiest places in the room. The dishes came well packed and protected. I will be back next year!

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!

We decided to use Home Science Tools for our 4th grader's science project. It was a breeze. The representative was nice, the package arrived when promised, and the product was easy to use. It couldn't be anymore perfect! Thanks!
