Description
The MEDILAB Rack for Micro Tube is a durable and autoclavable storage and processing rack designed for microcentrifuge tubes used in routine laboratory workflows. It supports precise sample handling, short- and medium-term frozen storage, and organised processing of micro-volumes. Its stackable and interlocking design makes it an essential accessory for research labs, diagnostics, and high-throughput environments.
Key Features
- 24-place microtube capacity, suitable for common tube sizes
- Autoclavable polypropylene construction for sterile processing and reuse
- Transparent design for clear visibility of samples and tube positions
- Stackable and interlocking, it can be coupled with other racks on all sides
- Stable, non-slip structure ensuring safe handling during centrifuge workflow
- Excellent chemical resistance to laboratory buffers and reagents
- Lightweight yet robust, ideal for cold-room and freezer storage
- Easy-to-clean smooth surfaces minimize contamination risk
