Relationship to Julius Petri[edit]

Does anyone know if Carl Petri is related to Julius Petri (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Richard_Petri), after whom the Petri dish is named?

At least not directly, Julius Petri did not have any children. Source is the (german) "Neue deutsche Biographie, Bd.: 20, Pagenstecher - Püterich, Berlin, 2001" as referenced in the german article on Julius Noleti (talk) 04:57, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
