A petri dish is a small, shallow circular dish made of thin glass or clear plastic with a loosely fitting, overlapping cover. It is used especially in microbiology for the growing of microorganisms on solid media.
A round glass or plastic dish with a cover to observe the growth of microscopic organisms. The dishes are partly filled with sterile growth medium (or sterilized after they have been filled). Petri dishes are much used to grow the mycellum which will inoculate the mother Spawn.
A Petri dish is a shallow glass or plastic cylindrical dish that biologists use to culture cells, which can be bacterial, animal, plant, or fungus. It was named after the German bacteriologist Julius Richard Petri (1852–1921) who invented it in 1877 when working as an assistant to Robert Koch.
