Gloved hand of a researcher holding a petri dish
Petri dish. Gloved hand of a researcher using forceps to place a grid on an agar plate in order to grow colonies of bacteria as part of a water purity check. The agar plate (white disc) is an ideal nutrient for growing colonies of bacteria. A water sample is placed on the the disc and the grid can be used for the counting of the resulting bacteria colonies. These colonies can be removed and analysed

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Science Photo Library, we witness the meticulous work of a dedicated researcher in the field of bacteriology. The image showcases a gloved hand delicately holding a petri dish, while using forceps to place a grid on an agar plate. This process is crucial for growing colonies of bacteria as part of a water purity check. The white disc-shaped agar plate serves as an ideal nutrient for cultivating these bacterial colonies. A water sample is carefully placed on the disc, and the grid allows for accurate counting and analysis of resulting bacteria colonies. Through this methodical approach, researchers can gain valuable insights into the quality and safety of our water sources. This photograph not only highlights the importance of testing bacteria in various fields such as medicine and healthcare but also emphasizes the significance of microorganism research in ensuring public health. It offers us a glimpse into the intricate world of microbiology and laboratory equipment used by scientists to unravel vital information about our environment. Science Photo Library has once again captured an impactful moment that reminds us how scientific exploration contributes to our well-being. As we admire this image, let's appreciate the dedication and expertise behind such research endeavors that ultimately shape advancements in medicine, test methodologies, and overall understanding within these critical domains.
