Pour Plates or Streak Plates?

Pour plates or streak plates?

The pour plate method of counting bacteria is more precise than the streak plate method, but, on the average, it will give a lower count.

High-Throughput Single-Cell Cultivation on Microfluidic Streak Plates.

This paper describes the microfluidic streak plate (MSP), a facile method for high-throughput microbial cell separation and cultivation in nanoliter sessile droplets. The MSP method builds upon the conventional streak plate technique by using microfluidic devices to generate nanoliter droplets that can be streaked manually or robotically onto petri dishes prefilled with carrier oil for cultivat...

Bipolar Plates

• good electrical conductivity (>100 S cm 1 bulk conductivity), • high thermal conductivity (>20 W cm ), • high chemical and corrosion resistance, • mechanical stability toward compression forces, • low permeability for hydrogen, • low-cost material being processable with mass production techniques, • low weight and volume, and • recyclable materials. Two different kinds of materials have been ...

Microchannel Plates

A typical MCP consists of about 10,000,000 closely packed channels of common diameter which are formed by drawing, etching, or firing in hydrogen, a lead glass matrix. Typically, the diameter of each channel is ~ 10 microns. Each channel acts as an independent, continuous dinode photomultiplier. In astronomy, and in the many other fields that use MCPs, the detectors are generally used for disto...
