Deep Dissection Dishes

The Dissection Petri Dish is a high quality Kimax glass dissection dish. It is made from a relatively deep Petri dish (50 mm Height), which is useful when working with larger specimens that need to be fully submerged in a liquid for proper handling. The bottom of the dissection dish is lined with several millimeters of Sylgard® material, the perfect medium for pinning out tissue specimens during delicate dissection procedures. The Sylgard® lining is free of air bubbles, and is not sticky to the touch. These dishes are autoclavable, and withstand many months of regular usage. The Sylgard® material will seal itself when a dissecting pin is removed, providing a clean smooth bottom for some time.
NOTE: Dimensions are approximate (~ ± 2 mm), due to slight variations in the sizing of the glass Petri Dishes from batch-to-batch.

Petri Dish Covers

  • Clear PYREX® will withstand repeated sterilization (wet or dry)
  • Beaded edges to provide greater mechanical strength and to equally space the side walls of the bottom and cover, reducing the capillary action of the condensed moisture
  • They are not affected chemically or thermally by any of the methods commonly employed in laboratories where sterilization is routinely used.
  • The covered dish is not airtight.
  • The covers are marked in blue enamel and the bottoms in white enamel to make sorting easier.
  • Bottoms also have a triangular enamel reference point for serial dilutions.
