May arrive as a single stack or in 2 stacks of 5. Pro-tip: after sealing your used/inoculated plates with the inside of the parafilm strip, place your used/inoculated plates in a ziplock bag.
It is highly recommended that you prepare your inoculum in front of a laminar flow hood or at minimum within an (sab) still air box to avoid contamination. All of our products are prepared in front of a laminar flow hood.
