Description
Nalgene™ floating polypropylene racks for microtubes are designed for thawing, cooling and incubation at elevated or reduced temperatures. The square rack provides a 4 × 4 array with 16 positions and accepts microtube sizes of 1.0, 1.2 and 2,0 ml, covering the common 1.0–2,0 ml working range used in molecular and cell-based work. External dimensions are 103 mm length, 103 mm width and 65 mm height, giving a compact footprint that sits stably in water baths or ice baths. The floating polypropylene construction keeps tubes upright and accessible while the rack remains buoyant on the liquid surface. These racks from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics are particularly suited to genetic engineering, microbiology and immunology laboratories that rely on rapid temperature transitions. The units are not autoclavable, so decontamination should follow the laboratory’s approved procedures for non-autoclavable plasticware. An open array layout allows quick tube insertion and removal during timed incubations. Supplied as a case of 16 pieces, the pack supports parallel sample handling across multiple baths or benches.

Questions about Nalgene™ Polypropylene Floating Microtube Racks
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Polypropylene Floating Microtube Racks is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Microcentrifuge & reaction tubes, inside Microplates, PCR & reaction tubes, in Consommables.
A microcentrifuge tube, the familiar 1.5 mL or 2 mL flip-cap tube, holds a small reaction or a spin-down. The cap style, the centrifugal-force rating and whether the tube is low-binding are the specification. A PCR tube is thinner and is a different article.
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.
