Frequently asked questions
What are the main advantages of the deep fill design?
The deep fill format provides an increased volume of 26 mL of agar per plate. This design is specifically engineered to improve moisture retention, which makes it ideal for:
- Extended incubation periods.
- Complex laboratory workflows that require a thicker agar base.
- Ensuring the media does not dry out during longer storage.
Is this medium suitable for general laboratory use?
Yes, this Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA) is a versatile general growth medium. It is specifically formulated to support the:
- Isolation of microorganisms.
- Cultivation and routine growth.
- Storage and maintenance of pure microbial cultures.
Does this product require special storage?
Yes, to maintain the integrity and quality of the media, these plates require refrigeration upon arrival.
Is this TSA medium reliable for transporting cultures?
Yes, the deep fill configuration is a trusted solution for the transportation of pure cultures in clinical and industrial settings, providing the stability and moisture retention needed during transit.
Can these plates support long-term microbial growth?
Because of the generous 26 mL fill volume, these plates provide more resources for microorganisms compared to standard fill plates, making them well-suited for applications that require longer incubation times without the media drying out.
Are these plates manufactured to high quality standards?
Absolutely. Hardy Diagnostics manufactures these plates in the United States to rigorous quality benchmarks. They are fully compliant with both the Buy American Act (BAA) and the Trade Agreement Act (TAA), ensuring professional-grade reliability for clinical and industrial environments.
What is the physical size of the plates?
These plates follow the standard professional laboratory dimension of 15 x 100 mm, designed to be stackable and compatible with standard laboratory equipment.
Are these plates sterile?
Yes, these are professional-grade, sterile plastic petri dishes designed for clinical and industrial microbiological applications.
Are they easy to stack in an incubator?
Yes, the plates feature a transparent, stackable design with smooth edges, allowing for efficient use of space within your incubator or storage refrigerator.
