Explore microbiology in three dimensions with this colourful agar plate model, inspired by the appearance of Salmonella growth on selective and differential laboratory media.
The design features a textured agar surface, clearly defined inoculation streaks, areas of dense growth and individual raised colonies. The contrasting colours highlight the progression from heavy initial growth to more isolated colonies, creating an engaging representation of a streaked culture plate.
The model provides a safe and durable object that can be handled, examined and displayed without the risks or limitations associated with a genuine microbial culture. It is ideal for microbiology and biomedical science teaching, food-safety education, student revision, laboratory displays, STEM outreach and science-themed gifts.
Please note that this is a simplified artistic and educational representation. Colony morphology and colour can vary depending on the strain, culture medium and incubation conditions. It is not intended to replace validated reference materials or be used for diagnostic interpretation.
