Principle
In order to prevent nutrient media and cultures from being contaminated with microorganisms that adhere to the working equipment, the equipment, nutrient media, and nutrient solutions must be sterilised. Petri dishes filled with a solidified nutrient medium are called plates in the specialised language of microbiologists. The nutrient medium is poured into the dishes either from test tubes, with one test tube holding the required quantity of ready-made medium for one Petri dish, or from Erlenmeyer flasks if a large number of plates needs to be prepared at the same time.
