Kind of dish in a lab (5)

I believe the answer is:

petri

(Other definitions for petri that I've seen before include "Cultures are grown in a -- dish" , "Man with a signature dish" , "Bacteriologist giving name to culturing dish" , "-- Dish, used for cultures" , "Scientist" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
