It's my opinion that the Nanologix package of 10 plates is $10.00, or $.86 lower than the competitors; so price advantage to Nanologix! Doesn't sound like much but a almost 9% discount should be significant when ordering in volume.

Also at the top of the Nanologix webpage is:
"NanoLogix packaging allows for an extended shelf-life that is more than double today's standard. In ongoing shelf-life tests, NanoLogix plates containing TSA media have maintained nutrient and moisture levels for longer than one year."

Therefore it appears Nano's products are less expensive and last longer, both which should be advantages trying to convince others to buy the product, in my personal opinion.

Take good care!
