About This Product
Microcentrifuge tubes are small and easily mixed up, so a box with a numbered cover helps a lab keep track of its samples. The transparent lid shows what is inside before the box is opened. Two layouts are made: one racks 64 tubes of 1.5 ml and the other 100 tubes of 0.5 ml, and the polypropylene box is designed to work across temperatures from -190°C to +121°C.
