  • Patent number: 10253288
    Abstract: Disclosed is a receptacle for accepting nutrient media, especially for bacterial cultures. Said receptacle comprises a dish and a lid that covers the dish. The dish and the lid each have a circular bottom (dish bottom and lid bottom) and an annular wall (dish wall and lid wall) that projects from the bottom. One of the walls, preferably the lid wall, has an at least slightly larger internal diameter than the external diameter of the other wall, preferably the dish wall, such that one wall can be slid onto the other wall to close the dish. In order to be able to safely handle the receptacle, engaging means which prevent the dish and the lid from being accidentally released when the same are mutually engaged, are associated with the dish and the lid.
