Anaerobic Systems
Petri Dish Safety Dispenser






Anaerobic Systems

The cultivation of strict anaerobic bacteria poses a special problem because these bacteria may be killed by exposure to air. Dissolved oxygen in the medium forms toxic free radicals and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of metabolic electrons. Obligate anaerobes are incapable of detoxifying these active forms of oxygen. To grow non stringent anaerobes on solid media, Atmosphere Generation System are used which release CO2. In the presence of a catalyst the oxygen is chemically bound and the oxygen will be removed from the jar. It is also possible to get completely anaerobic conditions by filling anaerobic chambers or jars with inert gases used for the cultivation of strict (obligate) anaerobes.

Petri Dish Safety Dispenser

It is not easy to carry sterile plates around. There is always the danger of contamination and as you can have experienced safe transport of Petri dishes can be a problem. To eliminate the risk of collapsing Petri dish stacks we now offer you a new Petri dish safety dispenser, that can be used for the secure stacking and sterile transportation of Petri dishes. It holds all standard 100 mm Petri dishes and just by pressing a colored clip, the Petri dish will be released. The dispensers can be sterilized and can easily be clipped together into a tower (see Figure 1).
