Description
Cool box for PCR (cooler) is a polycarbonate (PC) laboratory cooler that protects enzymes and solutions by holding them between −20 °C and −15 °C for two hours. The yellow housing contains an aluminium block with 96 wells in an 8×12 layout, accepting 0,2 ml tubes, strips or plates for PCR-oriented workflows. The base is filled with non-toxic gel that stores cold after pre-freezing and supports ice-free cooling at the bench. Before use, freeze the unit for 24 hours at −20 °C to −25 °C so the gel and block reach working temperature. Net weight is 1,601 kg. Supplied as one piece from manufacturer Labbox, this PCR cooler keeps temperature-sensitive master mixes, enzymes and related solutions organised in a standard 96-position format during setup and short incubations. The combination of PC body, gel reservoir and aluminium block is intended for repeated freeze-and-use cycles in molecular biology and diagnostic laboratories that rely on 0,2 ml tube, strip or plate formats.

Questions about Cooler for PCR
What is this article?
Cooler for PCR is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in PCR plates, tubes & strips, inside Microplates, PCR & reaction tubes, in Lab consumables.
PCR plates, tubes and strips are thin-walled so a thermal cycler can change the sample temperature quickly. A skirted plate is what a robot grips. White wells reflect light for qPCR. A standard 1.5 mL tube in a cycler block does not make proper contact.
A microplate is an array of wells so the same step can be done many times. A deep-well plate holds more volume. A PCR plate or a strip of tubes is thin-walled so the temperature of a cycler reaches the liquid quickly. A seal keeps the well from evaporating. The well number, the working volume and whether the plate is skirted for a robot are the choices. Diagnostic test systems are listed under ISO in vitro diagnostic systems. Methods are on PubMed.
