Description
Nutrient cardboard discs (NKS) for the Microsart® e.motion dispenser are dry nutrient media in Petri dishes for colony count determination by the membrane filtration method. They offer a practical alternative to conventional agar media with a long shelf life of 24 months. Each pack contains 100 pieces, with a net weight of 1,347 kg and a gross weight of 1,370 kg, supporting organised laboratory supply. These Microsart®-compatible discs from manufacturer Sartorius are intended for membrane filtration workflows in which filters are transferred onto nutrient media for colony enumeration. The dry NKS format reduces agar preparation effort and helps keep media ready for dispenser-assisted handling. Suitable for quality control, water analysis, and other viable count procedures based on membrane filtration, they align with standard microbiological Petri dish practice. Extended stability versus many poured agar plates eases stock management in high-throughput settings. Originating from Germany, the product supports consistent colony-forming unit assessment and media logistics where Microsart® e.motion dispensing is used.

Questions about Schaufus-Pottinger Nutrient Pad Set
What is this article?
Schaufus-Pottinger Nutrient Pad Set is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Ready-to-use culture media (plates, tubes, bottles), inside Culture media & microbiology, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A ready-to-use plate, tube or bottle is the medium already prepared and sterile. It saves the autoclave and it expires. The fill volume, the supplements and the storage temperature are the specification. A plate that has dried out or grown a colony of its own is finished.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
