Frequently asked questions

Are the racks made from high-quality autoclavable PP?

Yes, these Globe Scientific Float Microtube Racks are constructed from robust, autoclavable polypropylene (PP). This material ensures durability and provides essential features for rigorous laboratory workflows.

Key advantages of this PP construction include:

  • Reliable Buoyancy: The rack is engineered to float securely, even when fully loaded with filled tubes, making it perfect for use in water baths or ice applications.
  • Autoclavable: PP offers high temperature resistance, allowing the racks to be repeatedly sterilized via autoclaving to maintain strict laboratory hygiene standards.
  • Strength: The material provides the necessary durability and resistance required for long-term use in demanding environments.
Are these durable racks fully autoclavable?

Yes, these Globe Scientific Float Microtube Racks are fully autoclavable.

They are constructed from durable polypropylene (PP), a material chosen specifically for its superior strength, high temperature resistance, and suitability for rigorous laboratory sterilization procedures. This makes them ideal for continuous use in demanding environments like cloning, microbiology, and immunology labs.

Do these racks float in water baths or ice?

Yes, these Globe Scientific Float Microtube Racks are designed to float reliably in both water baths and ice. They maintain their buoyancy even when fully loaded with filled tubes, making them perfect for precise temperature control of samples.

What rack configurations are available?
