Your plates are going to be very expensive to make smile.gif
But it will not change anything. And if you want to REALLY avoid any source of nutrient in your plate, try using silica sol-gel....

Depends what are you going to use them for!! Otherwise as mentioned before, they are very expensive now and don't tell your advisor smile.gif
Don't worry, it should be ok
