Maintain samples at sub 4C- even on a
robot
The new SSI IsoFreeze PCR SBS colour-change racks exclusively available from Anachem now offer an economical way to protect the reagents on an automated PCR workstation.
These unique new cooling racks now have the industry-standard SBS footprint enabling samples to be maintained at sub 4C temperatures while being stored and used on standard robotic instrumentation IsoFreeze PCR SBS racks have a non-toxic gel-filled centre incorporating a temperature dependent colour-change material

Plate preparation workstations have high capacity
In addition to pipetting, plate gripping, and moving capabilities, the workstations can interface with other laboratory equipment such as washers, mixers, incubators, and readers
After storage at -20C the racks will maintain samples at below 4C for up to four hours on the bench or workstation.
A dramatic change to a contrasting colour is seen at 7C to indicate that the rack, or even a single well has risen above refrigeration temperature.
The high performance racks create a chilled, stable environment for PCR reagents, cells, enzymes or other temperature sensitive reagents.
They accommodate industry standard format 0.2ml tubes and will provide efficient cooling whether using individual tubes, strips of tubes or any format PCR plate (up to 96 wells).
Two different formulations are available, one changing from green to yellow and the other from purple to pink, and each rack comes with an individual snap-on-lid made of clear polypropylene.
