Description
Nutrient cardboard discs are dry nutrient media presented in Petri dishes for colony count determination by the membrane filtration method. They offer a practical alternative to conventional agar media, with the advantage of a long shelf life of 24 months at room temperature. This format supports efficient microbiological workflows by reducing preparation steps while remaining suitable for quantitative microbial assessment. Packaged as 100 pc(s) per unit and available from manufacturer Sartorius, the discs are intended for routine laboratory use in membrane-filtration protocols. Net weight is 1,350 kg and gross weight 1,600 kg, facilitating standard handling and storage. Produced in Germany (Niedersachsen), they integrate into established colony-enumeration procedures where stable dry nutrient media are preferred over freshly prepared agar. The ready-to-use cardboard disc design helps laboratories maintain consistent media availability over extended periods without frequent reordering or preparation. These nutrient cardboard discs are positioned for professional microbiology applications requiring reliable colony count determination under controlled filtration conditions.

Questions about Standard NPS & gridded MF, 0.45m
What is this article?
Standard NPS & gridded MF, 0.45m 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 Microbiologie.
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.
