What is a Petri dish• It is a shallow glass or plastic lidded dish that is used to culture cells.• It is named after the German bacteriologist Julius Richard Petri.• Many kinds of Petri dishes are used depending upon their size and shape.• Grids are used on the bottom of dish to relocate the cells after the experiment.

Cell Culturing on Grid Petri dish

[3]

• For experiment, single layer cells are grown on grid Petri dish using cell culture techniques.

• Cells are adhered at the bottom of the cell culture dish after 24 hrs.

• Grid is present on upper surface of bottom to relocate the targeted cell after experiment. This also makes possible the study of single cell.

Grid is present to revisit the targeted cells
