Hiya,

I am new to this forum so feel a bit cheeky asking for help first off but my brain is in totally blonde mode.

I am a third year degree student and my project is in novel antimibrobial products... I plan to look at levels of inhibition at depth thus simulating wound depth but my mental block is with the methodology. I plan to puncture agar at different depths, inocculate these depths with MRSA and then apply the antimicrobial and asses its properties from this, but i cant think of a standard peice of equipment from which to do this as i need something deep like a beaker but it needs to be able to be sealed and the flatter the better for visable colony counting... ie a petri dish that is square, stands on its side and opens at the top... probably not making alot of sense here but if you understand my waffle then all help ideas appreciated... and if you dont get my waffle, then hello and thankyou for reading and great forum!!

Hi Lori - I don't know the answer to what you're looking for, but can picture it based on your description. No need to open multiple threads with the same question. If someone who is reading knows, they will respond. Good luck!

you mean something like a Cuvette?
