Product Description
Ice buckets are messy, take up room and can wet tube labels. This ice-free cooler keeps a full 96-well layout at 0°C for over an hour and below 5°C for up to three hours with the lid off, and it changes color when samples warm past 6°C, so you always know your reactions are still cold.
This listing is for catalog number 120729: PCR Cooler, 96 Well Pink/Purple & Lt.Blue/Dk.Blue, Pack of 2. The polypropylene cooler is fully sealed and sonic welded to contain its coolant, and the well design prevents samples from freezing. A vented polycarbonate lid covers samples from freezer to bench, then slides out and rotates 180° to become a stand. Wells hold 0.2 and 0.5 mL tubes or assay plates. Two color schemes are available, sold in packs of two. LIGHT LABS ships genuine Heathrow Scientific products with knowledgeable support from our Englewood, Colorado team.
