CryoCool Mini Cooler, -20°C, 32-Place Overview
The Globe Scientific CryoCool Mini Cooler (SKU 454023GC) keeps temperature-sensitive samples at -20°C during benchtop handling, aliquoting, and short transfers. Designed for 1.5mL microcentrifuge tubes, this yellow unit holds 32 tubes in a 4x8 grid and includes a gel-filled cover to slow heat exchange.
Pre-chilling the cooler before use establishes a stable cold zone away from the freezer. Technicians can process enzyme reactions, nucleic acid preps, and other thermolabile workflows without constant trips to deep storage. Bright yellow coloring helps identify designated temperature zones on a shared bench.
Each cooler ships as a single unit. Built for repeat freeze cycles, it supports reproducible cold-chain handling across daily lab operations.

Laboratory Applications
Cold-handling workflows depend on stable, portable cooling. This mini cooler suits molecular biology benches running PCR setup, restriction digests, ligations, and reverse transcription, where reagents and enzymes must stay chilled outside the freezer. A gel-filled cover reduces warming when the lid is closed between sample pulls.
Clinical and research labs use coolers like this for aliquoting serum, plasma, and nucleic acid stocks into 1.5mL tubes. Bright color coding aids inventory zoning and reduces mix-ups during high-throughput sessions. Pre-chill in a -20°C freezer, then transport to the work area for extended cold holding.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tube size does this cooler accept?
It holds 1.5mL tubes across 32 positions arranged in a 4x8 grid.
How does the gel-filled cover help?
After pre-chilling, the gel-filled cover slows heat exchange when closed, helping maintain the cold environment between sample access.
What temperature is this cooler designed for?
Designed for -20°C use, it should be pre-chilled in a freezer at that temperature before benchtop work.
