Plastics laboratory ware - Single use Petri dishes for microbiological procedures (ISO 24998:2008)

This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods for plain, single-use Petri dishes for microbiological use. This International Standard does not apply to products of similar design which may be used for cell or tissue culture purposes. Neither does it apply to dishes supplied ready loaded with microbiological media.

Laborgeräte aus Kunststoff - Einmal-Petrischalen für mikrobiologische Verfahren (ISO 24998:2008)

Diese Internationale Norm legt Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für ungefüllte Einmal-Petrischalen fest, die
für die Verwendung in mikrobiologischen Verfahren vorgesehen sind.
Diese
Internationale Norm gilt nicht für ähnlich konstruierte Produkte, die für Zell- oder Zellkultur-Anwendungen
verwendet werden. Diese Norm gilt auch nicht für Petrischalen, die bei Lieferung bereits mit einem
mikrobiologischen Medium beladen sind.
ANMERKUNG Petrischalen werden bei mikrobiologischen Routineverfahren in sehr großer Zahl verwendet und
deshalb häufig durch automatisierte Geräte gehandhabt. Anwender solcher Ausrüstungen sollten sicherstellen, dass die
Petrischalen des jeweiligen Herstellers für die Handhabung in automatisierten Geräten geeignet sind, und dass sie bei
Bezug von unterschiedlichen Quellen miteinander kompatibel sind.

ISO 24998:2008(E) iv © ISO 2008 – All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 24998 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 48, Laboratory equipment, Subcommittee SC 6, Laboratory and volumetric ware.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 24998:2008(E) © ISO 2008 – All rights reserved 1Plastics laboratory ware — Single-use Petri dishes for microbiological procedures 1 Scope This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods for plain, single-use Petri dishes for microbiological use. This International Standard does not apply to products of similar design which may be used for cell or tissue culture purposes. Neither does it apply to dishes supplied ready loaded with microbiological media. NOTE Petri dishes are used for microbiological routine purposes in very large numbers and consequently, are often handled by robotic equipment. Users of such equipment should satisfy themselves that the Petri dishes of any given manufacturer are suitable for use with such equipment and, if obtained from several sources, are compatible if mixed. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 Petri dish combination of a dish with an accompanying loose-fitting lid, intended to preserve the microbiological integrity of its unused or in-use enclosed, interior space 2.2 dish shallow, cylindrical or square, open-topped container comprising a plane base with an integral outer wall NOTE The dish can be subdivided with internal dividers to form separate compartments. 2.3 lid cover of similar shape to, and larger size than the dish, over which it is placed, inverted, to enclose a working volume NOTE The underside of the lid can incorporate one or more small protuberances (venting protrusions) to facilitate free circulation of environmental gases. Lids without such protrusions are designed to impede such free circulation. 3 Principle of use Under environmentally controlled conditions, selected to avoid introduction of unwanted micro-organisms, the lid of the Petri dish is lifted and a quantity of microbiologically nutrient medium introduced (poured) into the dish. The dish is recovered and allowed to equilibrate with a predetermined environment. Under similarly suitable conditions, the lid is lifted again and a sample under investigation is then introduced onto the medium in the dish. Following closure and a period of storage under predetermined conditions, growth of any microorganisms originating from the sample may have occurred, enabling further study. NOTE Attention is drawn to potential national or regional regulations in respect of safe and environmentally compatible disposal of used Petri dishes. SIST EN ISO 24998:2009



ISO 24998:2008(E) 2 © ISO 2008 – All rights reserved 4 Types Four types of dish are specified in this International Standard. Type A: circular dishes, without internal dividers, with or without venting protrusions in the lid Type B: circular dishes, with internal dividers, with or without venting protrusions in the lid Type C: square dishes, without internal dividers, with or without venting protrusions in the lid Type D: square dishes, with internal dividers, with or without venting protrusions in the lid NOTE There can be variants of Type A to Type D in respect of design and construction as given in Clause 6. In that case, detailed specifications are given by the manufacturer. 5 Material The Petri dish shall be made from microbiologically inert transparent plastic and may be self-coloured for batch iden
