and more late-breaking nano-news (way to go, nano!)
Tropical Storm Harvey and FlatPack Update
NanoLogix is donating 1,000 specialized petri plates in 100 FlatPacks of ten plates each to a major hospital in Houston for their use in testing for contamination caused by flooding in their facility. As electrical power loss has been significant in the area a major determining factor in the selection by hospital staff was the ability of our FlatPack petri plates to be stored at room temperature for extended periods, while other manufacturers' products must be refrigerated. This highlights just one of the many qualities of the argon-flushed FlatPack vacuum packaging for petri plates.
The FlatPack, a method of vacuum-packing of petri plates in an inert gas environment, enables long term storage of many types of petri plates at room temperature for two years or more without deterioration of the nutrient agar contained in the filled plates. Standard storage times and conditions for competitors' petri plates are normally three months in a refrigerated environment. The potential economic impact of long term high quality non-refrigerated agar-filled petri plates is significant, with daily use of agar-filled petri plates worldwide numbering in the millions and access to both guaranteed-quality agar plates and dependable refrigeration for storage varying widely from area to area.
A research paper by a renowned Biomedical Research Center on the qualities of FlatPacked petri plates in a comparison test with competitors can be accessed here:
