Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the rack stay cold at 4°C?
After freezing the rack per the manufacturer instructions, the phase-change core holds samples near 4°C for extended bench work. The integrated color indicator shifts from purple toward pink as it warms, giving a clear visual cue to re-chill before the cooling window lapses.
Does it fit both PCR plates and strip tubes?
Yes. The 96-well format accepts standard 96-well PCR plates as well as individual 0.2 mL strip tubes, so a single rack covers both plate-based and strip-based assays.
How do I prepare the rack for use?
Place the rack in a freezer until the indicator reaches its full cold-state color (purple), then transfer it to the bench. Refreeze between runs once the color signals warming back toward pink.
Is the rack reusable?
Yes. The rack is designed for repeated freeze-and-use cycles, replacing wet ice for cleaner, contamination-free sample cooling at the workstation.
