CryoCool Mini Cooler, 0°C, 32-Place Overview
The Globe Scientific CryoCool Mini Cooler (454003GC) holds samples at 0°C on the open bench, giving technicians a stable cold-block alternative to crushed ice. This red unit accepts 32 microcentrifuge tubes in a 4x8 grid sized for 1.5mL formats. A gel-filled cover seals over the block to extend the working window after removal from the freezer.
Pre-chill the cooler in a standard freezer, then transfer it to the bench when you need consistent 0°C handling. Enzymes, reagents, and temperature-sensitive samples stay protected during pipetting, aliquoting, and short protocols. Bright red color flags the cold block at a glance in a busy workspace.
Designed for repeated freeze-and-use cycles, the gel-filled construction supports routine molecular biology and clinical workflows. LabSupplies.com stocks this Globe Scientific cooler as a single-unit item for lab managers standardizing cold-handling stations.

Laboratory Applications
Cold-block coolers support enzymatic reactions, restriction digests, ligations, and PCR setup where reagents must stay chilled during handling. Technicians rely on a 0°C platform to protect polymerases and other heat-labile components while loading multiple tubes. Holding 32 positions, this unit suits batch preparation across molecular biology benches.
Clinical and diagnostic labs use 0°C coolers when staging patient samples, controls, and standards before analysis. Gel-filled covers help maintain temperature after the block leaves the freezer, reducing reliance on ice buckets. Aliquoting, sample sorting, and short incubations all benefit from a defined cold zone.
