Staphylococcus spp. 3D-Printed Agar Plate

Explore microbiology in three dimensions with this detailed agar plate model, inspired by the appearance of Staphylococcus colonies growing on selective laboratory media.

The model features a textured agar surface, visible streaking and contrasting raised colonies. These details turn a familiar microbiology laboratory sight into a safe, durable object that can be handled, examined and displayed without the risks or limitations associated with a genuine microbial culture.

Staphylococcus species are important in clinical, environmental and food microbiology. This model is ideal for microbiology and biomedical science teaching, student revision, hygiene and food-safety education, laboratory displays, STEM outreach events and science-themed gifts.

Please note that this is a simplified artistic and educational representation. Colony morphology and colour can vary depending on the species, strain, culture medium and incubation conditions. It is not intended to replace validated reference materials or be used for diagnostic interpretation.
